Add Hosts From Clipboard
Only Global Admins or Restricted Admins with elevated View and Manage privileges can take this action.
- Copy the host identifiers (IP or name) you want to import, using the following guidelines:
Every line up to the first space is considered a unique host entry.
LogRhythm does not support hostnames that include spaces. All other characters on the same line following the first space are ignored.
Each host entry is analyzed to determine its identifier type:
IP Address (via standard IPv4/v6 regex pattern)
Windows Name (not IP and starts with “\\”). This allows you to copy Net View output.
Domain Name (all other values)

If any records have a status value of Warning Type 4, choose the Warning Type 4 Acceptance Mode for that record and then accept as specified above. The following modes are available:
- Enable Existing (default). If the host exists within the root or child entity already, enable it and leave it within the entity where it currently resides.
- Enable Existing and Move to Specified Entity. If the host exists within the root or child entity already, enable it. If it doesn’t exist within the specified entity, move it to the specified entity.
- Create New (not recommended). Create a new record regardless of whether it exists in the root or child entity (not recommended).
