Administrator’s Manual

If the network parameters (Gateway server(s), DNS server(s), DHCP server(s), WINS server(s), 
available access points, and/or specific adapter connections) are known for a location, the service 
details (IP and/or MAC), which identify the network, can be entered into the policy to provide 
immediate location switching without requiring the user having to save the environment as a 
location.

To access this control, open the Locations tab and click the Network Environments folder in the 
policy tree on the left.

The lists provided allow the administrator to define which network services are present in the 
environment. Each network service may contain multiple addresses. The administrator determines 
how many of the addresses are required to match in the environment to activate the location 
switch.

It is required that 2 or more location parameters be used in each network environment definition.

To define a network environment, perform the following steps: 

Step 1: Select Network Environments in the components tree and click the New Component 

button 

Step 2: Name the network environment and provide a description 

Step 3: Select which adapter type is permitted to access this Network Environment from the drop-

down list
