Understanding network profiles

Network profiles are networks that you have saved at connection time using the auto-connect
options or have manually added to the network profile list. Creating network profiles has the
following advantages:
•
You can configure the Connection Manager to automatically connect to a network profile
whenever that network is available.
•
You can see a list of network profiles from the main Connection Manager screen if the last
network you connected to is not available at a particular location. This lets you use the
same easy, one-click connection to an alternate network.
•
You can automate steps in the connection process like typing an encryption key or logging
in to a VPN so that you do not have to perform these actions each time you connect.
Moreover, you must have a profile for the following:
•
You cannot connect to a closed network unless you have added it to network profile list.
•
You must have a network profile for each network to which you wish to connect.
