Running a Device Discovery Rule

Adding Many Devices Using CSV Files

168
To run a device discovery rule:
In the Configure pane of the NSM navigation tree, click Device Discovery Rules.
1.
Select the rule you want to run.
2.
Click the Run icon in the discovery rules toolbar.
3.
The device discovery Progress dialog box appears.
NSM pings each IP address in the specified range to see which ones it can reach, and
then runs the rule against each reachable device. When it finds a device that satisfies
the rule, it displays a dialog box containing an SSH key for you to verify.
Accept the SSH key. The device automatically connects with NSM and NSM imports
4.
the device configuration.
The Device Discovery Progress box shows which devices were added, devices that
were found but could not be added, and at what stage in the discovery process the
device add process failed.
If your network includes a large number of devices, you can save time by adding multiple
devices in a single workflow using the Add Many Device wizard.
With the wizard, you can add up to 4000 devices at a time to a single domain (you cannot
add multiple devices to different domains at one time). Additionally, for some types of
ScreenOS devices, you can create configlets to activate rapidly your newly deployed
security devices. However, you cannot configure Rapid Deployment for Secure Access
devices, Infranet Controller devices, or devices running Junos OS. Neither can you configure
RD when adding multiple ScreenOS security devices that are systems (NetScreen-500,
NetScreen-5000, ISG1000, ISG2000).
NOTE: You cannot use the Add Many Devices wizard to add clusters or cluster members,
EX Series Ethernet Switches configured as a virtual chassis or an SRX virtual chassis.
Adding many devices is a three-step process:
Create the CSV file.
1.
This file defines all the required and optional values for each device.
Use the Add Many Devices wizard to select the CSV file to import or model the
2.
devices.
The wizard validates the CSV file, notifies you of any errors, and then adds the devices
for which all defined values are valid.
When importing devices with static IP addresses, the device configuration is
automatically imported during the Add Many Devices workflow.
