Select the host(s) to change networks by clicking the check box in the page's first column. You may select more than one host at a time.

Optionally, you can check the **Force Merge on Conflict** checkbox. When checking this box, Ivanti Neurons will forcibly merge two assets together. However, some data may be lost during this process due to constraints. If a host already exists on the network being merged into, the existing assets data will always be preserved. If two assets from different networks are being moved into a third other network and are in conflict, Ivanti Neurons will not merge these assets. To resolve this conflict, first, move the asset whose information you want to completely preserve and then merge with the second asset.
