CPI2.1 manual add devices

[STEFFEN NEUSER]

Hello,

Im at a customer who don't want to discover but manual add new devices. Because the idea of credential sets from LMS hasn't been taken over to prime, you need to type a lot for adding devices into prime's GUI. Are there other ideas, how to preset Community and SSH credentials in the add device edit box? Is it also possible to clone and modify existing devices?

thx, Steffen

Hello sneuser,

The best option to tackle manually adding devices through Prime is to click on the bulk import tool under Device > Work Center and download the .csv file that is linked by the "by site" option.  Populate the required fields that are necessary to add the number of devices you want Prime to manage.  Save it and then click on the Bulk Import tool again and it will ask you to select the .csv file that you want to import, from there.  View progress of the import through Administration > Jobs Dashboard to see its success/fail status.

Hope this helps,

Brandon
