DocumentType=
ETEMS requires the document type to be defined as “simple” when
importing a CSV configuration file.
deviceType
Product Family (appliance model), such as ET0100A or ET0010A. The
device type is not case-sensitive.

Enter the software version as a three-digit number, with the third digit being
zero (for example, etep1.5.0). Even if the software installed on the appliance
has a non-zero third digit, the third digit must be entered as zero for a
successful import. For example, if the software on the ET0100A is v1.5.2,
enter the software version as 1.5.0. After the appliance is provisioned and
ETEMS communicates with it, ETEMS will accurately display the third digit.

Name that uniquely identifies the appliance in ETEMS. The device name is
case-sensitive. Spaces are allowed within the name.

imported into ETEMS should match the management IP address configured
on the appliance.

Installation Guide for your appliance for more information about setting the
IP address, mask, and gateway.
