Locations
Locations can be used to distinguish clients by their location.
Network parameters like the Public IP are used to determine the clients location.
Create a location
- Navigate to
Configuration > Locations - Click on the Create button
- Provide the Name of the location and fill in the Country, City/Region and Carrier as well.
- Click on Save
In order for clients to be mapped to a location, the location must be linked to at least one Location tag.
Create a location tag
Location tags match clients to a location. Matching is achieved by identifying network parameters that distinguish the locations.
- Navigate to
Configuration > Location tags - Click on the Create button
- Choose a tag type. Choose a network parameter which is the same for all clients at that location, but different to all others.
- Provide the tag specific parameters. (E.g. the IP address)
- Choose the location that this location tag should be linked to.
- Select a priority. All tags are ordered by this priority so that the first matching tag in the list determines the location of a client.
Important remarks
- If a tag is newly created, past data of clients is not updated and matched to the linked location.
