Importing data using import utility

In the WDM Common Utilities section, you can import data from comma-delimited and tab-delimited les. This utility allows you to import

devices, subnets, IP ranges, repositories, or default groups for subnets from a le into the WDM database. The data must be imported from

at les. A delimited at le contains one or more records separated by a specied delimiter or separator such as a comma or a tab.

To import data, perform the following steps:
