[LUAU] managing multiple network profiles?

[Tom_Gordon/RISE/HIDOE at notes.k12.hi.us]

Type "fedora network profiles" in google and click "I'm Feeling Lucky". 
Or, in firefox just put "fedora network profiles" in the address bar.  You 
can also replace "fedora" with "redhat" for more results.

[LUAU] managing multiple network profiles?








I have a laptop running FC2.  It has both ethernet and wireless.  I have 
about a dozen different locations that I use my laptop, each one with 
different network settings.  I have been just using the 
"system-config-network" interface to change the settings each time I 
change locations (open up the gui, switch between dhcp/static ip, change 
dns, gateway, subnet, etc).  But this has gotten tedious, and I'm having 
a hard time keeping all the numbers straight.

I've been trying to find a tool that would take care of this for me, 
something that managed network profiles and allowed me to switch between 
profiles easily.  I've been looking, but I haven't been able to phrase 
my search right, and haven't found anything.

So, primarily I'm interested in knowing of any tools available for doing 
this?
And as a secondary question, assuming there's no tool, is there a best 
practice for doing this?

Thanks,

-Charles
