Valid location number of the terminal
device onsite. If the cable is connected
to a router in a cabinet, the serial
numbers of the cabinet, the frame and
the Ethernet interface of the router
should be specified, for example,
B02-03-12. If the cable is connected to
the Network Management Station
(NMS), specific location of the NMS
should be given.
