- Used to make network-wide changes, such as modifying the NSAP IDP
value, by editing the text file and using the MODIFY feature of the
IMPORT command.

using the REGISTER, UPDATE, or REPLACE features of the IMPORT command.
- Used to verify that the addressing information in one directory
service is the same as in another directory service, using the VERIFY

DEREGISTER feature of the IMPORT command.
