Import a list of host names

Prev Next

Import a text file that contains IP addresses and the corresponding host names.

Create a tab-delimited file with IP addresses and host names.

Each record in the file must be listed on a separate line, with the IP address first in IPv4 or IPv6 notation. For example:

102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com

08c8:e6ff:0100::02ff x.acme.com

  1. On the system navigation tree, select System Properties, then click HostsImport.

  2. Browse to the text file, then click Upload. If the file contains IP addresses that are currently on the host table with a different host name, the Duplicates page lists the records that are duplicates.

    • To change the host name on the table to the one in the text file, select it in the Use column, then click OK.

    • To keep the existing host data, don't select the checkbox, then click OK.

      Note

      Data that is entered manually does not expire. The system adds the new host data to the host table. The Auto Learned column for this data says No.
