Locations on the 9800

[Wes Schochet]

Should i be using locations?  under configuration -> Wireless Setup -> Basic you can define locations.  I have never noticed it before.  Does a location override a a policy tag?  I don;t quite get the hierarchy.

Locations serve as a new tag source within the tag resolution scheme, functioning similarly to static tag sources. During location configuration, you can

• configure a site or location for an AP

• assign a set of tags for the location, and

• add APs to the location.

The combination of unique tags and associated MAC addresses distinguishes each location and enables organized network management.
