An example of a service requiring custom profile settings is Sprint’s DataLink service, which enables
enterprise users to use the Sprint network to access their private network. This service can be used as a
means for primary access or as a backup for wireline access, as well as for providing wireless remote
access to the private network. Figure 4 illustrates a network that uses Sprint’s DataLink service to allow
data to travel over a private connection between remote locations and the enterprise network.

To use services requiring custom profiles, these profiles must be created by manually entering a user name
and password for AAA, primary home agent address, secondary home agent address, shared secret, and the
profile home address.
To create custom profile settings for manual activation, enter the following commands as described in this
section.
1. Create a user name using either the
custom-profile username
<username>
password
ascii
<password>
command or the
custom-profile username
<username>
password hexadecimal
<password>
. These commands specify the user name, which is equivalent to NAI user identification,
and the password, which is equivalent to an AAA shared secret. The first command uses a plain text
password, and the second uses a hexadecimal password. The user name can consist of up to 72
characters, and the password can consist of up to 16 characters. The
no
form of this command removes
the user name and password. To specify a user name and password, enter the command from the cellular
interface configuration mode as follows:
(config-cellular 1/1)#
custom-profile username USERNAME password ascii PASSWORD
Not all service providers use the same methods for establishing private IP services over
3G networks. Check with your service provider to receive your custom profile settings and
to ensure that they are configured correctly.
