A customer has subscribed for a static IP address. By definition this must be

configured manually.

Profiles
In the following section, all the parameters that need to be configured for a connection (such
as APN, user name, password, DNS server addresses etc.) are referred to as a ‘profile’.
Every profile is identified by an arbitrary, unique name. The profile named Default is special
in that it is always present and can neither be edited nor deleted. The Default profile uses pa-
rameters from a built-in database. The home network (the network that issued the SIM) is
used for the database look-up. While there can be many configured profiles, only one profile
can be active at any time.
If connection profiles are configured manually, the Enable automatic configuration check-
box should normally be unchecked.
In one particular use case, manually configured profiles may be combined with automatic
configuration. If multiple SIM cards are used with the same device, each SIM card being
from a different operator and some or all of them requiring a manually set up profile, auto-
matic configuration may be used to automatically pick the correct manually configured
profile for each SIM card. For this to work, each profile must be configured while the corre-
sponding SIM card is inserted in the device and initialized (i.e. the status is at least SIM
is ready
).
The Select profile: drop-down list in the data configuration profile selects to which profile a
subsequent action applies. A profile named Default is always present and contains the
current parameters from the database. The following actions are available:

Show

The parameters for the selected profile are displayed when you tap the stylus on this button.
For the Default profile, the publicly known password is shown—otherwise, the password
is hidden.

Edit

The parameters of the selected profile can be edited when you choose the Edit button. Keep
in mind that you cannot edit the Default profile.

Delete

The selected profile is deleted. You cannot delete the Default profile.

Activate

When this button is chosen, the selected profile becomes the active profile. Activation is
possible only if the Enable automatic configuration: checkbox is unchecked.
