Proposed solution is integrating above two and allow users to create  profiles for each connection where they can store the proxy settings for each connection in those profiles. When a connection is available , auto connect to the connection with the proxy settings of it.

Current Network Manager in the desktop environment provides a list of available connections and users can select a network to connect. Also it has Network Connections options where they can edit the network connection. It also facilitate users to mention the proxy settings there itself. But there is no direct relationship between those two.

The first phase of the solution is add the profile creating facility to the Network Settings interface.. Users can create profiles for each connection with the connection details.

Second phase is allowing users to store the proxy settings for each profile.

In the third phase the connecting to selected profile will be implemented.

What is the suggestions, corrections or references related to this proposed solution ?

Thanks & Regards,
Malintha Adikari
