Import nodes from a list of IP addresses

To import devices from a list of IP addresses (also called a seed file) in the Network Sonar Discovery wizard:

  1. Enter one IP address or host name per line.
  2. Open the file that lists.
  3. Log in to the SolarWinds Platform Web Console, and click Settings > Network Discovery.
  4. Click Add New Discovery to create a new discovery, or select a discovery, and click Edit.
  5. Click IP Addresses, and then copy and paste the IP addresses or host names of the devices from your seed file into the field.
  6. Click Validate to confirm that the provided IP addresses and host names are assigned to SNMP-enabled devices.
  7. Complete the Discovery and import the devices.

The Network Sonar Results Wizard opens with the results of your Discovery.

Like other features shared by multiple SolarWinds Platform modules, the latest information about Discovery is documented in the SolarWinds Platform Administrator Guide. See Monitor cloud instances and VMs for details.
