Named profiles

You can name a rate plan (profile for policing) or profile for services and store it in a internal database the UDR. Named Profile (NP) is created once and is used for setting needed service parameters and rate plan limiters for subscribers.

Named profiles have the following advantages over the unnamed profiles:

Simplifies administration of users
Allows you to find the subscribers with the required profile by profile name
Allows you to change the profile to all subscribers with a given named profile simply by changing the profile parameters
Allows you to control the restriction on the number of unique named profiles (up to 65535)

Unnamed profiles have the following advantages:

No need to have a deal with profile management (create and delete it), the profile is released together with the removal service or subscriber profile
No need to invent a profile name
