Create

1. Open Terminal.
2. Create the network location "Valencia" and switch to it:

   sudo networksetup -createlocation "Valencia" populate
   sudo networksetup -switchtolocation "Valencia"
   

3. Identify the network service you want to configure (e.g., Wi-Fi). List all services:

   networksetup -listallnetworkservices
   

4. Set the DNS for the service (replace Wi-Fi with your service name if different):

   sudo networksetup -setdnsservers "Wi-Fi" 192.168.0.16
   

Replace "Wi-Fi" with the correct network service name from step 3 if necessary.

Delete

To delete a network location named "Valencia" using MacOS's networksetup, open Terminal and run:

sudo networksetup -deletelocation "Valencia"
