I'm looking for a good CSV formatted file example to import wired devices into Prime Infrastructure.

Thanks, rob

LMS 4.2.2 introduced a feature to export data for Prime Infrastructure. I've attached a sample file from my lab server.

The colums are the key - you will need to fill in your usernames and passwords in columns C, G, H  and I, You should optionally add your SNMPv3 and http settings if you use those.

I notice that there is only one #ip_address designation which can be an IP address or a DNS name.

In PI2.2 the Inventory -> Network Devices has 2 columns Device name and IP Addresss. The export from 4.2.5 does not include a device name. is there any way around this thjan having to enter all the names again?

thanks

Once the imported device(s) are synchronized by PI the hostnames will be populated from the device configurations.

Hi Marvin,

Thank you for CSV file. Can you please let me know if we have option to upload device list just using Hostname only?
