A geofence is a virtual perimeter defined by GPS coordinates. When you configure a geofence area and define it as the Home area, Avalanche can generate an alert when devices report a GPS position that is outside of the defined area.
To configure a geofence area:
| 1 | From the Profiles tab, select the mobile device profile from the Profile List. |
| 2 | Click Edit. |
| 3 | In the Advanced Settings tab, ensure that Enable location-based services is enabled. |
| 4 | Click Add in the Geofence Areas region. |
The Add Geofence Area dialog box appears.
| 5 | Type a name for the area in the Name text box. |
| 6 | If you want the area to be a home area, enable the Is a Home Area check box. |
| 7 | Enter the start and end latitude and longitude for the geofence. The start point should be the southwest corner of your area, and the end point should be the northeast. |
| 8 | Click Select. |
The area is added to the list.
