with static IP addresses. Three addresses are added, two IPv4 addresses and one IPv6.
The first IP 192.168.100.100 has a prefix of 24 (netmask equivalent of 255.255.255.0).
Gateway entry for the first IP address will become the default route if this profile
is activated on em1 interface (and there is no connection with higher priority).
The second two addresses don't specify a prefix, so a default prefix will be used, i.e.
32 for IPv4 and 128 for IPv6.
The second and third commands modify DNS parameters of the new connection profile.
The last <emphasis>con show</emphasis> command displays the profile so that all
parameters can be reviewed.
