When you add the device, NSM validates the configuration information in the
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
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.
The import process differs between devices that use static IP addresses and devices
that use dynamic IP addresses:
For devices with static IP addresses, the Add Many Devices wizard automatically
imports the device configurations.
