The Profile Settings utility lets you save network settings in 
“profiles.” ConfigFree

®

 profiles are useful for easily switching 

network settings and devices. You can switch network settings 
simply by selecting the profile with the desired settings.

If you visit a client company occasionally, for example, you can set 
up a profile to match that environment and connect to the network. 
Similarly, users who access networks in the office and at home can 
set up profiles to handle these networking environments.

A profile contains the currently configured network settings on the 
computer, as well as information about any network devices. The 
following settings can be saved (or “captured”) in a profile:

❖

Internet settings—includes LAN settings (proxy server 
settings) and the address of a home page that opens 
automatically when Internet Explorer

®

 starts

❖

Devices—lets you enable or disable settings of wired and 
wireless network devices, infrared devices, and set the power 
status of Bluetooth

®

 antennas

TCP/IP settings—includes DHCP, IP address, subnet mask, 
default gateway, DNS server, and WINS server settings
