=============
Profiles provide a way to scalably group node configurations together. Instead of redundant configurations for each node, you can put that into a profile and the nodes will inherit these configurations. This is very handy if you have groups of node specific customizations. For example, a few hundred nodes that are running a particular container or kernel, and another group of nodes that are running a different kernel or container.
Any node configuration attributes can be applied to a profile, but there are always going to be some node configurations which must be specific to a node, like a network HW/MAC address or an IP address.
An Introduction To Profiles
==============================
===========================
Every new node is automatically added to a profile called ``default``. You can view the configuration attributes of this profile by using the ``wwctl profile list`` command. Like the ``wwctl node list`` command, this will provide a summary, but you can see **all** configuration attributes by using the ``--all`` or ``-a`` flag as follows:
