Hello,
I've been talking with Mircea Carasel about a JIRA issue he's been
working on - [1] - an issue about, among other things, introducing the
concept of user site location, as described in [2]. The user
site-location would represent physical location of the user.
We've been thinking of a way of expanding this concept to a more general
"site-location".
This new concept would act like a general group not just for users, but
also for devices, like phones, gateways or SBCs. The first benefit for
this is that the administrator could make settings based on site
location, settings like timezone, or NTP server, these being the
starting point of our discussion (because of [3]).
The site location would be available in a different page, let's say
under System->Site Locations.
Here, one would have the possibility to display users, phones, gateways
and SBCs from a specific location and make settings based on that
location just like with group settings.
I'm sure that besides time-zone settings and per-user gateways there are
a lot of other things that could use from this concept. So please share
your opinions.
This e-mail is mainly about collecting opinions whether or not we should
open a JIRA to implement this feature and the benefits this would bring.
As soon as there is an agreement upon this, I'll come back with details
about what we thought would be the first phase in implementing this.
Regards,
Andrei
As far as I can tell everything that can be done with 'site-location' can
be done with groups.
Correct - there is also what we were thinking of - a site location is
basically a group (saved in group_storage) and with 'resource':
site-location
So the usual questions:
- do we really need a new feature - why not just add 'Site Location'
panel/capability to group settings for users (and later for devices if needed)
This is what is required for XCF-2407 - but we were thinking that it can
be useful to have a central place (a dedicated page for location) where
different location specific settings
can be set...
