_______________ About LocationWizard
LocationWizard was designed to do the following:
* To provide a step by step process to create a new location entry.
* To allow this location entry to be saved to either a PortMaster or a
configuration file.
* To allow the user to save specific settings as a template. This
allows the user to run the LocationWizard against this template file
and enter only the settings that are different between location entries.
_______________ Template Files
When saving a single location to a file, you can select the option to
save the location as a template. On the summary screen, you will see a
checkbox next to each configuration option. These checkboxes denote
configuration options that should be changed when the wizard uses the
template file. When the LocationWizard reads the template file, it will
only display the panels that correspond to these selected configuration
options. All non selected configuration options will be saved to the
newly created location.

* SLIP and X.75 protocols are not currently supported.
