EMC IONIX \ SMARTS Seed Files

Seed files are great in a large networked environment.  Data can easily be manipulated in a spreadsheet to import.

SNMP v1 or v2c files

With a simple v1 or v2c SNMP discovery, simply list the names in a single column in a text file.

Device1
Device2
Device3

SNMP v3 seed files

For SNMP v3 discovery, you will have to create several fields in the seed file.
This can be accomplished in a text editor or excel\calc.  Each value is tab delimited with each device on a separate line.

<Device Name or IP>    SNMPVERSION=V3    USER=<v3user>    AUTHPROTOCOL=<MD5 or SHA>    AUTHPASS=<XXXXXX>    PRIVPROTOCOL=<DES or AES>    PRIVPASS=<XXXXXXX>
