Configuring location tagging

Locating tagging enables you to add location tags to the assets into the system. Use tags to identify the assets based on your location classification to help you better organize your rule-base. If you enable location tagging, you can tag each discovered or provisioned asset with location tags.

In an IT environment, assets are spread across multiple locations and data centers. You may want to provide access to branch users only with XYZ branch location assets.

Attribute-based account groups can be added with location sets as the attributes. Location tags can be utilized for multiple purposes. Refer below to learn how to add a new location or editing an existing location tag:
