Since the configuration segment segment–1220.cfg contains a variable L, which is the
same as the variable name of the Location additional information entry, in this case BIMS
automatically sets the variable value as the default value of the Headquarter additional
information entry as shown in Figure 18.

By default, the system sets the variable L as the default value of the CPE Location additional
information entry. You can select the Use the CPE additional information by default check box
to stop the system from setting the default value of Headquarter for the variable L, and define
this variable yourself.
If you want to use the same parameters for all CPEs you selected in the previous step, select
the Use the same parameters for the following CPEs check box. Then BIMS automatically sets
the variable L of all the selected CPE to be the value you define on this page, and you don't
need to configure the variable for all selected CPEs one by one.
7. Click Next, and then set the variable L for the next CPEs to identify where the CPE is located,
as shown in Figure 19.
