4.2.2 Editing a CSV File
You can import multiple devices to Vantage Access at one time using a CSV (Comma-
Separated Values) file. You can view and edit CSV files in a spreadsheet application such as
Microsoft Excel.
To import multiple devices at one time, you need to create an CSV file that contains the
information (such as the device name, OUI, serial number and device type) for each
compatible device. To download an example file, click Provision Manager > Device
Manipulation > Import Devices > Example.csv. You can then modify it with your devices’
information. The following shows an example for two ZyXEL compatible devices.
