example). View the two exported CSV files:
„
Default Objects Catalog.csv contains the individual

Note: If you plan on importing this data back into Juniper
Aspect it works best if you do not rename the “Object

Type data and which contains Object data.
You can now see what the Default Object Catalog CSV
file looks like and use it as an example as you create your
own.
