# Creating Profiles

> **Applies to:** Tmedia 3.0, 3.2; SBC 3.1

Profiles are created to define the manner in which many aspects of signalling are handled by the system. Profiles can be used to fine-tune the handling of VoIP, TDM, IVR and Tones, and more. To create a profile you must use the Tmedia [Web Portal](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/tmedia/configuration/web-portal/README.md).

**To create a profile:**

1- Click **Profiles** in the navigation panel

![ProfilesMain 0 A](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/1/1d/ProfilesMain_0_A.png)

System profiles contain settings for a large number of call processing options. To learn more about these profile settings, consult the following profile categories:

* VoIP Profile Settings
  * [Media Relay](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/api/modifying-media-relay-profile-settings/README.md)
  * [SDP](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/sip-voip/modifying-sdp-profile-settings/README.md)
  * [SIP](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/sip-voip/modifying-sip-profile-settings/README.md)
  * [RTP and Audio](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/voice-media/modifying-rtp-and-audio-settings/README.md)
  * [Fax/Modem Relay](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/voice-media/modifying-fax-relay-profile-settings/README.md)
* TDM Profile Settings
  * [TDM SS7](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/signalling/modifying-tdm-ss7-profile-settings/README.md)
  * [TDM SS7 or ISDN](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/signalling/modifying-tdm-ss7-or-isdn-profile-settings/README.md)
* [Telephony Services](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/api/modifying-telephony-profile-settings/README.md)
* [Tones and Call Progress Options](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/api/modifying-tones-and-call-progress-options/README.md)
* [IVR Record](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/concepts/modifying-ivr-record-profile-settings/README.md)
* [TDM Line](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/transmission/modifying-tdm-lines-profile-settings/README.md)
* [LNP Options](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/concepts/modifying-lnp-profile-settings/README.md)
* [Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) Options](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/concepts/modifying-multilevel-precedence-and-preemption-mlpp-options/README.md)
* [Call Transfer Options](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/api/modifying-call-transfer-profile-settings/README.md)

Tone definition profiles list the frequencies for each tone that is used in a telephone network. This tone definition can change from country to country, such as the ring tone and busy tone. To learn more about how to configure customized tone definitions, see:

* [Tone Definition Profiles](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/voice-media/modifying-tone-definition-profile-settings/README.md)

2- Click **Create New Profile**, to create a new profile

![ProfilesMain A 1](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/0/06/ProfilesMain_A_1.png)

3- Enter a **name** for the profile

* Click **Create**

![ProfilesMain 2a](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/9/9d/ProfilesMain_2a.png)

4- Verify that the **"Profile was successfully created"** message appears, and that the newly added profile appears in the **Profiles List** below

* **T.38 Parameters**
  * use V.34
  * Max bitrate
* **Fax Modem Passthrough Parameters**
  * Use NSE
  * Force NSE
  * Support V.152 VBD
  * Force V.152 VBD

**Both TDM and RTP**

* **Tone and Call Progress Options**
  * Tone Definition Profile
  * Digit Generator
* **IVR Record**
  * Voice Activity Detection Enabled
  * Voice Activity Detection Noise Floor

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://prosbcdocs.telcobridges.com/tmedia-documentation/configuration/creating-profiles.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
