Using Profiles with Cisco 700

devices.

Profile Overview
There are two modes in which you can set parameters, the system mode and the profile
mode. System mode parameters affect the configuration on a global level. Profiles are sets
of local parameters. Profile mode parameters affect how the router handles the connection
to a device.
You do not have to reconfigure the router every time you connect to a different device.
Instead of using one set of configuration parameters for all devices, you can use different
profiles to communicate with a variety of devices.
For example, you can create a user-defined profile called 2500 that contains the parameters
to be used when communicating with a Cisco 2500 series router over the WAN. You can
customize your Cisco 700 series router to maintain up to 17 user-defined profiles. Profiles
are saved in the Cisco 700 series router nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM).
