Chapter 5
Managing Profiles
This chapter describes how to set up an OAC profile for an authenticated network
connection.
A profile contains all of the information necessary for authenticating a connection
to a specific network. This includes information such as your identity (user
credentials) and the EAP protocols used to authenticate to that network.
You must have a profile for each network to which you connect and authenticate.
You can have profiles for various corporate office locations, particularly if the
authentication requirements differ. Similarly, you can have profiles for various
customer networks and for wireless networks at airports, train stations, and coffee
shops.
To configure a profile:
1. Open the Configuration folder in the sidebar.
2. Select Profiles to open the Profiles dialog (Figure 8).
