7.5 Location based landing page
Since version 2 it is possible to make different configurations and styling for different location or VLANs.
We differntiate between two types of location based configuration. The first is to show different templates and the second is to define different configurations per location. You can mix this two types as you like. The location based functionality has to be enabled in conf/main.cofig.
Configuration key location-based
Default false
Activates the location based functionality location-id-fields iacbox
Data fields which will be used. Currently available are iacbox which is the registration number and vlan for the VLAN-ID (or Route-ID in routing mode)
Please note that the IACBOX has to send the needed data for the location.
Check your settings in Modules/Interface/Login API/Custom Logon Page. The following parameters have to be present in the field First call data fields with placeholders when using location based: vl=$VLAN (location per vlan), iac=$REGNR
(location per registration number).
Possible location-id-fields configurations location-id-fields Configuration vlan iacbox iacbox, vlan
Example v10
2001010101
2001010101-v10

7.5.1 Show different templates per location
After you enabled the location based functionality switch to the file htdocs/index.php. Comment in the following code part at the end of the file and comment out the last two lines of the code like the example below. Customize the different cases for your needs. Please note that when using VLANs it is necessary to add the letter v before the VLAN-Id.

// be hit by apps.

7.5.2 Show different configurations per location
Location based configurations can be made in all .config files by grouping config values with so called sections which are location IDs in square brackets like [my-location-id].
Attention: Place sections for location based settings always at the bottom of config files because all following config values after an location ID belong only to this location. You should always have a default section at the top without any section header.
Example: languages = de, en, fr, it

# Example location-id-fields = vlan
