Commands on Router but not in Baseline

Hi All,

Just a general question really; I have attempted to Google it & look through these forums but coun't see anything - not sure if its my poor wording of the search term??

I have created a baseline template to run compliancy checks, I understand that lines beginning with a + are mandatory and lines begining with a - should not be on the router.  What I need to know is, is there a catch all for any other commands on the router config (startup or running) but not mentioned in the baseline? 

For example, lets say this is my baseline:

+   service   timestamps   debug   datetime   msec

+   service   timestamps   log   datetime   msec

+   service   password-encryption

+   hostname  [hostname]

The router comes back as compliant as it has all the above lines.  However there is obviously more config on the router, but this doesn't show?  So I know I can get commands that are in the baseline but not on the router; but what about the other way round - on the router but not on the baseline?  Surely this exists - at the least from a security point of view, an attacker could well have configured the Dot11Radio int, however without entering the command with the minus prefix I can't tell? 

I'm on LMS 2.6 by the way - I know, blast from the past

Thanks

Andy

I've had a good look through CiscWorks; and feel that I am surely missing something obvious - but I just can't see the wood for the trees.  I am guessing I need something similar to:

+ All

+ Baseline

+ Config

+ First

+ Then

- No other config

I have read through the user guide for this - namely chapter 8 which deals with Baseline Templates, however just can't see it?  Am I even looking in the right place?

Sorry to bump this, but has no one ever come across this before?  Is it as simple as being a limitation of Cisco Works - i.e. you can see what part of the baseline is on the router, but you can't see the remaining config on the router??

Ok, I still haven't figured this out - so just a final bump

Any suggestions at all are more than welcome
