Import / Export Cabling Map (Datacenter)

Import Cabling Map

You can export a cabling map either as a JSON file or a CSV file, but you can only import it as a JSON file.
  1. From the blueprint, navigate to Staged > Physical > Links and click the Import cabling map button (first of five buttons above the links list).
  2. Either click Choose File and navigate to the JSON file on your computer, or drag and drop the file onto the dialog window.
  3. Click Import to import the cabling map and return to the links view.

Export Cabling Map

Data center technicians may find a printed cabling map useful when wiring in switches, or remote network operators may find it useful for viewing IP assignments. It's available in CSV and JSON formats. You can copy the contents or download the file to your local computer. If you're planning on importing the cabling map back into your blueprint, use the JSON format; you can't import a CSV file back into a blueprint.

  1. From the blueprint, navigate to Staged > Physical > Links and click the Export cabling map button (second of five buttons above the links list), then select JSON or CSV. (Use the JSON format if you're planning on importing the cabling map back into your blueprint.)
  2. Click Copy to copy the contents or click Save As File to download the file.
  3. When you've copied or downloaded the cabling map, close the dialog to return to the Links view.
    Note:

    You can also export cabling maps from Active > Physical > Links.
