Configuring a user profile
Overview
A user profile provides a configuration template to save predefined configurations, such as a Committed
Access Rate (CAR) policy or a Quality of Service (QoS) policy. Different user profiles are applicable to
different application scenarios.
The user profile is capable of restricting authenticated users' behaviors. After the authentication server
verifies a user, it sends the device the name of the user profile that is associated with the user. Then the
device applies the configurations in the user profile if the profile is enabled, and allows user access
based on all valid configurations. If the user profile is not enabled, the device denies the user access.
After the user logs out, the device automatically disables the configurations in the user profile, and the
restrictions on the users are removed.
Without user profiles, service applications are based on interface, VLAN, or globally, and a policy
applies to any user that accesses the interface, VLAN, or device. If a user moves between ports to access
a device, to restrict the user behavior, you must remove the policy from the previous port and then
configure the same policy on the port that the user uses. The configuration task is tedious and error prone.
User profiles provide flexible user-based service applications because a user profile is associated with a
target user. Every time the user accesses the device, the device automatically applies the configurations
in the associated user profile.

Creating a user profile
Before you create a user profile, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure authentication parameters on the device.
•
Perform configurations on the client, the device, and the authentication server, for example,
username, password, authentication scheme, domain, and binding a user profile with a user.
