Network Connection Profiles

You can use built-in or create custom profiles, both are assigned to network connections automatically. Network Connection Profiles can be configured by clicking Edit.

Private Network Connection Profile

A profile for trusted, home or office networks, enabling file and resource sharing between devices and providing a more seamless and collaborative network experience.

Public Network Connection Profile

A profile for public or untrusted network environments, which prioritizes security and restricts sharing of files and resources with other devices on the network.
