Export & Import
Step 1: Export of Computers
-
Export all computers from WakeOnLan by clicking 'Export Computers' from the 'File' menu, then providing the name of the exported file. The file format is one computer per line. Each line contains a computer's type, name, IP address, favorite flag, hidden flag, timer, and port values, all separated by a commas.
Step 2: Import of Computers
-
Import computers by clicking 'Import Computers' from the 'File' menu, then selecting the file to be imported. After that, you're given the opportunity to check if the imported file matches WakeOnLan's data structure:
Check if all column titles represent the file's content. If you see that the column order is mixed, drag the column title to it's correct position. WakeOnLan will do some check as well and inform you about incorrect values by showing them on a red background.
Select 'Overwrite existing Computers' if the imported file is more correct than the current WakeOnLan computer list. Note that WakeOnLan uses the mac address as the computer identifier, which means that if an imported computer's mac address is known already, this flag decides which data to use; if the mac address does not exists, the imported computer is added anyway.
Note that the imported file must contain at least the computer's mac address, since this is the overall identifier.
