The CSV file contains device-related data records, which LANconfig can import. This provides you with a convenient method of managing this data on the network.
The following is an example of a simple CSV file:
CONFIG_FILENAME;DEVICE_PATH;DEVICE_INTERFACE;DEVICE_ADDRESS;DEVICE_LOCATION;DEVICE_NAME;KEY;USER
Fil52146.lcs;Affiliate/NRW;IP;192.168.1.1;Wuerselen;Fil52146;secret1;user1@internet
Fil80637.lcs;Affiliate/BAY;IP;192.168.2.1;Muenchen;Fil80637;secret2;user2@internet
The header contains the names of the device parameters. The following lines itemizes the various devices line by line, and their parameters are separated by semicolons. If 2 semicolons appear in direct succession, then the enclosed parameter value is blank.
The parameter names on the first line can be freely defined. If you decide to use the standard LANCOM variable names, LANconfig automatically allocates the device parameters during the import.
- DEVICE_PATH: Path name in the folder view
- DEVICE_INTERFACE: Connection type
- DEVICE_TIMEOUT: Maximum response time of the device
- DEVICE_STARTUP: Device check at startup
- DEVICE_PROTOCOLS: Communication protocols
- DEVICE_PORTS: Ports
- DEVICE_ADMIN: Administrator name
- DEVICE_PASSWORD: Administrator password
- DEVICE_NAME: Device name
- DEVICE_DESCRIPTION: Description
- DEVICE_BACKUP: Storage location for the configuration backup created by LANconfig
- DEVICE_VPN: Parameter set for 1-Click-VPN
If you choose not to use the LANCOM default variable names, you may need to manually assign the values to the appropriate device properties in LANconfig during the import.
