connection profiles in vista?

Posted: 07-24-2008, 12:00 PM
This is the scenario: our IT made it a policy to issue static IPs to
employees. So we configure both LAN and wireless IP configs with a
given IP addresses, gateways, DNS, etc. However, most of us are mobile
and when we connect to wireless and ethernet LANs outside the company,
we want to be able to EASILY switch between static configs and dynamic
configuration. This may not be such a big problem with Wifi but with
LAN it is because I find myself having to manually change from static
to dynamic everytime. Also, I want the system to be able to remember
the settings like a network profile so I can easily switch to the
specific network configuration depending on where I am, eg HOME,
CLIENT1, CLIENT2, OFFICE, etc.

How can do this in Vista networking?
