Guys

Does anyone know the max string length for the description field of a mac filter when using a CSV file for importing to the WCS?

Thanks.

You can try adding one mac filter and increase the desc test gradually to see the maximum.

The answer is 32 characters maximum. Creating a new template showed the max length of the description field. I verified this by exporting the MAC filter list from the CLI into a text file and then imported to Excel. Using a character count function I filtered out those entries where the description field was greater than 32. These entries co-incided with those that hadn't been accepted by the WCS. I have now placed a limit on the text string for the description field in the CSV file to prevent the customer exceeding the limit.

+5 Roger.

Now we know more because your answer
