Agent Profiles

The Agent Profiles screen allows you to centrally define how the Timus Connect app behaves across user devices—including Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android platforms. This ensures that VPN behavior, telemetry reporting, DNS handling, and security policies are applied consistently across your organization.

📍 Agent Configuration → Agent Profiles

Use profiles to enforce secure defaults, automate VPN behaviors, and apply settings dynamically to specific users, teams, or tags.


Each row in the Agent Profiles table includes:

FieldDescription
TitleThe name of the profile
DescriptionInternal notes about its purpose
StatusCurrent status of the profile

The Default Profile cannot be renamed or deleted, but you can modify its settings.


Create a New Profile

Click Create New to begin. In the setup modal:

  • Enter a Title (required, max 30 characters)
  • Add a Description (optional, max 120 characters)
  • Set the Status to Enabled ****or Disabled
  • Assign the profile to one or more Users, Teams, or Tags

Once assigned, the profile opens platform-specific configuration tabs for detailed setup.
