Adding Multiple Devices From A Csv File - Dell PowerConnect W-Airwave User Manual

Adding Multiple Devices from a CSV File

Adding devices in bulk from a CSV file to AWMS is another option for adding all device types. Here you also have
the option of specifying vendor name only, and AWMS will automatically determine the correct type while
bringing up the device. Note that if your CSV file includes make and model information, AWMS will add the
information provided in the CSV file as it did before. It will not override what you have specified in this file in any
way.
The CSV list must contain the following columns:
IP Address

SNMP Community String

Name
