Here are a couple of screen shots that should help you when you want to add a location in **System Preferences** to allow you to access the internet from different locations.
 * Screen Shots**



After you have opened you System Preferences and selected **Network** then from the drop down menu you selected **Edit Locations** you will see this screen. To add a location all you have to do is to select the + button and then name your location and that will be an option to select in the future.



Now, if you are setting up your **tsunami** location for accessing the internet at school, this is what you will need to make sure that you enter in 172.16.11.12 (Server) and 3128 (Port) in all three of the following areas, **FTP Proxy, Web Proxy (HTTP) and the Secure Web Proxy (HTTPS).** Once you have done that hit the "OK" button which will take you back to where you will select the "Apply" button and your new location should be properly configured.

Then when you go from school to home or somewhere else, all you have to do is to select that location that you have previously set up and you should be able to access the internet with no problem.
