Creating a Location

You must create a unique dial-out location for each remote host or router you want to
access. Location table entries are identified by this unique location name, which can
contain up to 12 characters.
To create a location, use the following command:
Command> add location Locname

Setting the Connection Type

Because the default method of initiating a connection is manual, you need to use the
dial command to cause the PortMaster to manually dial out to a location. You can
change the connection type as shown in Table 7-1. If you are changing an existing
location's connection type, verify that the connection is not active.
