Importing Routers into Command Center
The following section describes the process of manually importing Routers into Command Center.
The minimum data set required to successfully import the Router into Command Center includes:
Wan ID, User ID, Installation Date, Installation Time, Installed Meter No, Installed Endpoint SN,
and Service Time Zone.
Generating the Import Installation File (IIF)
The IIF is always required, even if using Router Auto Registration. When a Router has been
physically installed in the field, certain data must be reported back to the Command Center staff in
order to generate the IIF.
Create a CSV File for the IIF Information
Command Center can generate a template IIF (in CSV format).
1. From Command Center home, select Operations > Import > Import Installation File.
The Import Installation File window will
open.

Endpoint) and should only contain data related to that specific unit.
