This will create a directory "ou=berlin,o=mycorp,c=de". Use only uppercase
or lowercase letters or numbers. If desired, add a description by adding the
following attribute value pair to the command above:

7.2.2 Adding a Location (Branch)

To create a location, you need the following attributes as described in Table
7.3 on page 83:
posAdmin.pl --user cn=admin,o=mycorp,c=de \
--password secret \
--base ou=berlin,o=mycorp,c=de \
--add --scLocation --cn harbor \
--ipNetworkNumber 192.168.1.0 \
--ipNetmaskNumber 255.255.255.0 \
--scDhcpRange 192.168.1.10,192.168.1.50 \
--scDhcpFixedRange 192.168.1.10,192.168.1.50 \
--scDefaultGw 192.168.1.254 --scDynamicIp TRUE \
--scWorkstationBasename CR --scEnumarationMask 000
Note: Please note that we discovered a minor bug with the first SLRS version.
Even if the scDhcpFixedRange is set to start at 192.168.1.10 the first POS
client which will be initially registered will start with IP 192.168.1.11. We
will fix this bug for a future release of SLRS.

7.2.3 Adding a Branch Server

A branch server has a defined hardware, at least one defined IP address, and
offers network services, like TFTP, DNS, and DHCP. Before you can add a
Branch Server to a location, define a scServerContainer for a location. This is
done with the option --scServerContainer and the attribute --cn:
posAdmin.pl --user cn=admin,o=mycorp,c=de \
--password secret \
--base cn=habor,ou=berlin,o=mycorp,c=de \
--add --scServerContainer --cn server
In the new container, add a new branch server with the -scBranchServer
option by adding at least a common name (--cn) and, as a may attribute,
define the reference hardware with the --scRefServerDn option, a pointer
(Distinguished Name) to the global database:
