Hello everybody.

I need you help please


In winbox i enter the command import file.rsc but it doesn’t work.

I have this sentence “failure: already have device with such name”

I don’t understand

Thanks for ideas.

It means that you “already have device with such name”. Your import command is trying to give another device the same name, as some other device has.

To avoid this, use “export compact” command in the source, and if needed, open the file to edit out the unneeded lines. You can just delete all the stuff that you don’t need to import.
