Creating a “location.txt” File
You can create your own “location.txt” file and upload the file to the Access Gateway’s flash
memory at
[IP address]/flash/location.txt.
Use the following format when creating the file:
“1”,1,00:00:00:00:00:00,0.0.0.0,0, “Room 101”
The 4 (four) fields used in the format represent the standard format for port-location
assignments (location, port, modem MAC address for RiverDelta, subnet, state, description).

Location – Locations are assigned as an alpha, numeric, or alpha-numeric value
(unless a PMS interface is used, in which case only numeric values can be used).

Port – Any number between 1 and 65535.

Modem MAC Address – MAC address of the modem being used.

Subnet – Subscriber’s subnet address.

State – Possible states are: (0) no charge for using this port-location, (1) charge for
use, and (2) blocked. If you do not assign a conditional state, the state is registered as
“No Charge” by default.

Description – Use a meaningful description for the assignment.
Characters (used for locations and descriptions) are case-sensitive.
