ConfigFree Utilities

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.

Personal firewall settings for Internet connections.

Dial-up connection settings for the default connection.

File and printer sharing settings.

Printer settings for the default printer.

Bluetooth Security Level (for example, high or medium). To create a profile:

1Click the icon in the system tray.

2Move the pointer to Profile.

3Click Add. The Add Profile screen appears.

4Select Capture and click OK. The Add Profile screen appears.

5Enter the name of the profile you want to create.
