Importing Details of a New Customer​

To import IP to customer mappings for IPDR, follow these steps:

  • Click the Import button located in the top right corner.
  • Browse and select the CSV file containing the IP to customer mappings, with one mapping per line.
  • Click Upload CSV File to initiate the upload process.

CSV File Format​

The CSV file should have a specific format, with each line containing nine columns. Each column represents a detail of the customer or subnet. The following default date settings apply when importing IP to customer mappings:

  • Valid From: If no date is specified for "Valid From," the system defaults to January 1, 1970 (Epoch timestamp: 0).
  • Valid To: If no date is specified for "Valid To," the system assumes the validity period is perpetual, with no end date.

These default settings can be adjusted or overridden during the import process or after importing the data. Sample:

The default mapping of all the columns to customer and subnet details can be modified in the UI after importing the CSV file.
