In the Settings area the default host type for the import can be defined. The Default Host Type dropdown menu contains the following options: Windows, UNIX*, and Unknown. Furthermore, there is the option to automatically check for the hostname of a given IP address if the file does not contain the hostname and the option to automatically remove those devices which are not present in the file from the My Devices view.

 

In the File area the Source File field is used to select the file for the import. Click on the Browse [...] button on order to select the .csv file from the file browser. Once a file is selected, a preview of the file will be shown at the bottom of the window. Check the My data has a header checkbox if the .csv file is using a header. To completely ignore the header, check the Ignore header checkbox.
