Abstract
A system and method for location-based configuration of an information handling system are disclosed. A method may include detecting an available network for communication with the information handling system. Based on at least the detected available network, a current location of the information handling system may be determined. Based on the determined current location of the information handling system, one or more parameters of the information handling system associated with the determined current location may be automatically configured.
Claims20
A method for location-based automatic configuration of an information handling system, comprising:
- detecting an available network for communication with the information handling system;
- based on at least the detected available network, determining a current location of the information handling system;
- and
- based on the determined current location of the information handling system, automatically configuring one or more parameters of the information handling system associated with the determined current location.
An information handling system comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory communicatively coupled to the processor;
- a network interface communicatively coupled to the processor;
- and
- a computer-readable medium having stored thereon a program of instructions operable to, when executed:
- detect an available network communicatively coupled to the network interface;
- based on at least the detected available network, determine a current location of the information handling system;
- and
- based on the current location of the information handling system, automatically configure one or more parameters of the information handling system associated with the determined current location.
A program of instructions embodied in a computer-readable medium, the program of instructions operable to, when executed:
- detect an available network communicatively coupled to an information handling system;
- based on at least the detected available network, determine a current location of the information handling system;
- and
- based on the determined current location of the information handling system, automatically configure one or more parameters of the information handling system associated with the determined current location.
