To add a new fence to the Trio panel, please follow the instructions below:

1. Open the Trio Business panel and from the left side menu, select “Location services”. Click on the “Geofence” tab to create a new fence.

Hint: Geonfence is usually set to show the office location on the map. if an office has more than one geo-location (like offices with multiple branches), users can add multiple fences to display offices on the map.

2. Fill in the information you need to create the fence. The information you need to provide for this section is:

  • Geofence name

  • Geofence radius

  • Device assignment (The devices used within that fence/ office, with applied policies)

Did you know?

Circular fences are more often used among different cybersecurity solutions since they follow more accurate data transmission rules.

4. Assign enrolled devices to the fence. Select from the device list.

Why do I need to assign devices to the fence?
Device assignment to the fences facilitates monitoring and management of the devices.

After completing all configuration steps, save the settings. Your newly created geofence will appear on the map. Devices that check in or out of the designated area will trigger a notification to the Trio panel, and IT administrators will receive a corresponding log entry.

The information available to IT admins on the Fences page includes:

  • Device name and ID

  • User assigned to the device

  • Geofence name and location

  • Check-in and check-out timestamps

  • Device status at the time of the event

  • Compliance state and associated policies

This data helps IT teams monitor movement, ensure location-based compliance, and respond quickly to unauthorized activity.

The information you can see regarding the fences includes the following items:

  • Fence name

  • Number of devices assigned to it

  • Devices inside the fence

  • Devices outside the fence

  • Missed devices

  • Fence radius Creation date
