Example: Using an Excel File to Add Multiple Modeled Devices
To edit an Excel file for adding many modeled devices:
1.
Copy the bulkadd_model-sample.csv file located in the C:/Program Files/Network and
Security Manager/utils directory. The header row at the top defines the settings.
2.
Using one row for each device you want to add, enter the required values for the device.
You can also provide optional values, if desired.
3.
Save the file to a location on your local drive.
Example: Using a Text File to Add Multiple Modeled Devices
To add and model three security devices, create a text file with the following text:
dev13,orange,ScreenOS,ns5XP,none,5.0,off,advanced,netscreen123,static,10.10.30.5,32,10.10.30.
1,,,123456abc,netscreen,netscreen,,,on
dev14,green,ScreenOS,ns50,none,5.0,off,advanced,netscree123,pppoe,,,,root,netscreen,,1netscreen,netsc
reen1,,,off
dev15,red,ScreenOS,ns204,none,5.0,off,advanced,netscreen123,dhcp,,,,,,,2netscreen,netscreen2,,,off
Save the file as a .csv file.
Validating the CSV File
When you add the device, NSM validates the configuration information in the
.csv
file
and creates a Validation Report. The report lists any incorrect or duplicate configurations,
and indicates the exact line that contains invalid data.
NOTE: The Validation Report displays only the first error in the line. If the line
contains additional errors, those errors do not appear in the Validation Report.
Select Cancel to quit the Add Many Devices process, or select Add Valid Devices to begin
adding the devices for which you have provided valid device configurations. If the
Validation Report listed incorrect configurations, you can still select Add Valid Devices;
however, only the devices with correct configurations are added. If the
.csv file contains
duplicate configurations, NSM ignores the duplicates.
After you have added devices, you cannot roll back or undo your changes. To edit or
delete a device, select the device in the UI and make the necessary changes.
Importing Many Devices
The import process differs between devices that use static IP addresses and devices
that use dynamic IP addresses:
