Wired Location Service
Provides the location information of a caller. The location is determined by the Emergency location identifier number (ELIN), which is a phone number that routes an emergency call to the local public safety answering point (PSAP) and which the PSAP can use to call back the emergency caller.
◦Geographic location information
Provides the geographical details of a switch location such as latitude, longitude, and altitude of a switch.
◦custom location
Provides customized name and value of a switch location.
Wired Location Service
The switch uses the location service feature to send location and attachment tracking information for its connected devices to a Cisco Mobility Services Engine (MSE). The tracked device can be a wireless endpoint, a wired endpoint, or a wired switch or controller. The switch notifies the MSE of device link up and link down events through the Network Mobility Services Protocol (NMSP) location and attachment notifications.
The MSE starts the NMSP connection to the switch, which opens a server port. When the MSE connects to the switch there are a set of message exchanges to establish version compatibility and service exchange information followed by location information synchronization. After connection, the switch periodically sends location and attachment notifications to the MSE. Any link up or link down events detected during an interval are aggregated and sent at the end of the interval.
When the switch determines the presence or absence of a device on a
Depending on the device capabilities, the switch obtains this client information at link up:

•MAC address specified in the client MAC address
•IP address specified in port connection
•802.1X username if applicable
•Device category is specified as a wired station
•State is specified as new
•Serial number, UDI
•Model number
•Time in seconds since the switch detected the association
Depending on the device capabilities, the switch obtains this client information at link down:
•Slot and port that was disconnected
•MAC address
