Mapping subnets to locations

Has anyone had success in doing this? I imported my locations, then I imported subnets, but I can't seem to get the locations to map to the subnets on an import. What am I missing?

    Wow, so each location has to have it's own profile in csv format that does nothing more than provide the name of the subnet in a separate file?

    Correct.
    As this is a Many-to-Many relationship (A location can have many Subnets and a Subnet can be across many Locations) this is the way this data is required to be formatted to get it to import as we require it to.

    Brett, thanks for the tip - worked great accept for one thing; for those systems in SCCM that have multiple IPs associated to it, (i.e. 10.x.x.x, 192.168.x.x), the import process is not able to parse that data and know what location to associate the CI record with. Any thoughts on how to mitigate multiple interfaces to locations?

    Unfortunately there is no easy way to set this up to work as a decision needs to be made about which IP address to use in each situation.
    Filtering and cleansing the data is the best way to do this for now.
    It might be worth raising a feature request to add the ability to select the network adapter to look at for location information. (i.e. LAN NIC's first, then WiFi)
