Within the Zscaler Cloud & Branch Connector Admin Portal, you can create location templates. The selected attributes in the template are applied to a location. To learn more, see About Location Templates.

To configure a location template:

1. Go to Administration > Location Templates.
2. Select Add Location Template.

The Add Location Template window appears.

See image.

3. In the Add Location Template window, enter a name for the location template in the Name field. This field is mandatory.
4. Enter a prefix for the location template in the Template Prefix field. All locations created using this location template contain this prefix. This field is optional.

5. In the Gateway Options section:

   • Enable XFF Forwarding: Enable this setting if you want the Zscaler service to use the X-Forwarded-For (XFF) headers that your on-premises proxy server inserts in outbound HTTP requests.
   • Enforce Authentication: Enable this setting to require users from this location to authenticate to the service.
   • Enable Caution: Enable this setting to display an end user notification for unauthenticated traffic. If you do not enable this setting, the action is treated as an allow policy.
   • Enable AUP: Enable this setting to display an Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) for unauthenticated traffic and require users to accept it. If you enable this setting, the Custom AUP Frequency (Days) field appears. Enter in days how frequently the AUP is displayed to users.
   • Enforce Firewall Control: Enable this setting to enable the service's firewall controls. If you enable this setting, the Enable IPS Control setting appears. Select this setting to enable Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) controls for the location template. To enable IPS controls, you must be subscribed to the advanced firewall SKU.
   • Enforce Bandwidth Control: Enable this setting to enter the maximum bandwidth limits for Download (Mbps) and Upload (Mbps).

6. (Optional) In the Description section, enter a description of the location template.
7. Click Save and activate the change.
