Using the Profile Manager
The profiles that you created are listed in the Available Profiles box. Highlight each one that you want
Step 3
to include in auto profile selection and click the Add button. The profiles appear in the Auto Selected
Profiles box.
The following rules apply to auto profile selection:
You must include at least two profiles in the Auto Selected Profiles box.
•
The profiles must specify an SSID; otherwise, they do not appear in the Available Profiles
•
box.
•
Profiles cannot specify multiple SSIDs; otherwise, they do not appear in the Available
Profiles box.
•
Each profile that is included in auto profile selection must have a unique SSID. For example,
if Profile A and Profile B both have "ABCD" as their SSID, only Profile A or Profile B (whichever
was created first) appears in the Available Profiles box and can be included in auto profile
selection.
Note
The first profile in the Auto Selected Profiles box has the highest priority while the last profile has the

lowest priority. To change the order (and priority) of your auto-selectable profiles, select the profile that
you want to move and click Move up or Move down to move the profile up or down, respectively.
Click OK to save your changes.
Step 5
When auto profile selection is enabled (see the
instructions), the client adapter scans for an available network. The profile with the highest priority and
the same SSID as one of the found networks is the one that is used to connect to the network. If the
connection fails, the client adapter tries the next highest priority profile that matches the SSID and so on.

To remove a profile from auto profile selection, select the profile in the Auto Selected Profiles
box and click Remove. The profile is removed from the Auto Selected Profiles box.
When you enable auto profile selection, the client adapter scans the wireless modes specified by
all the profiles in the auto profile selection list for an available network. The client ignores the
selected profile's wireless mode setting, which was configured on the ADU Profile Management
(Advanced) window. Using this method, the client does not need to disassociate nor change the
current profile while looking for networks in other profiles.
