1. A computer-implemented method for configuring a plurality of target nodes communicatively coupled to an operator node in a network comprising: accessing, by the operator node, a first set of system attributes for a first target node of the plurality of target nodes; accessing, by the operator node, a second set of system attributes for a second target node of the plurality of target nodes, each of the second set of system attributes corresponding to a different one of the first set of system attributes; receiving, via an interface of the operator node, a request from a user of the operator node to display a differential visualization of the first set of system attributes and the second set of system attributes; generating a differential visualization of the first set of system attributes and the second set of system attributes, the differential visualization indicating, for each of the first set of system attributes, a variance between a value of the system attribute of the first set of system attributes and a value of the system attribute of the second set of system attributes; and displaying, via a hardware display corresponding to the operator node, the generated differential visualization.
