9.1.2 Addition Network Locations
Location is used to define the network’s location in a precise or descriptive way. A location
might be a city, a part of the city, a building, or a single floor in a building, depending on the
coverage area of the organization’s network. A small organization might have only a single
location, an office. On the other hand, a large organization might have several locations, in
different cities, or a single overall location, such as “Europe,” under which countries and cities
etc. are defined.
