Fast deploy configs

The easiest way to deploy configs to services is Fast update.

This will directly upload current configs to services, just like from a master in git.
Fast update automatically create special tag _fast. This tag rewrite each time you use Fast update.

'Fast update' is useful on test circuit, but this is not good idea for production.

In the future, you can reuse this tag, for deploy or restore configs from it.

Add new tag

To add new tag from current configs press Add tag.

Note

Tag name must be unique.
