Network configurations created and saved in NetSim can be exported as a *.netsim_exp file. This exported netsim experiment file can be imported as explained below:
- Click on the Open Simulation option in NetSim Home Screen. NetSim will now display a list of experiments (if any) that were already saved.

- Click on the Import Experiment Option present in the bottom right of the window.

- In the Import Experiment window that appears, browse to the path of the *.netsim_exp file that you want to import and select it.
- From NetSim v12.0 onwards, NetSim Configuration files (Configuration.netsim) can also be imported. In which case, you will also have to specify a name for the experiment.


- Click on OK. Now the imported experiment will be part of the list of experiments.

- You can click on the experiment name to load the network in the NetSim design window.
