About Configuration Profiles
A profile is a set of parameters that define a particular ISDN setup.
When you installed the DIVA software, the Configuration Assistant helped you configure your
ISDN settings. These settings were saved to Profile 0.
In addition to this profile, you can configure two other profiles th at define different ISDN
setups, which can correspond to the needs of your different applications. For example, you
may configure profiles to match the ISDN setup needed to connect to your office, your
Internet Service Provider (ISP), and CompuServe.
When you need a particular ISDN configuration, you simply select the appropriate profile.
This saves you the trouble of reconfiguring all your ISDN parameters each time you switch
applications.
