Can an Insight devices be moved to another location?

Explorer crashed as I entered - so my apologies if this is a duplicate. Is there an easy way to drag/drop a wireless managed device from one location to another? I know I can unjoin it from managed mode and re-join, but you have to be onsite to do that. Would love to be able to do it with the cloud console. Perhaps I missed it, but I do not see a way to do it.

    For security reasons, the discovery must be run on the same connected (W)LAN. I understand your request - not so long ago a new device was silently added to the last used Network (site, location, ...) instead the intended one. Happened to us several times. For some Insight 4 updates, the system does ask to which Network the new discovered device should be added.
