Use this command to create a profile and name it. The maximum profile size is 5000 characters.
A UPM profile name must begin with an alphabetical character and may contain alphanumeric characters and underscores (_), but it cannot contain spaces. The maximum allowed length for a name is 32 characters. For name creation guidelines and a list of reserved names, see Object Names.
There is a limited capability to edit the profile with this command. If you enter a period (.) as the first and the only character on a line, you terminate the editing of the file. Use the command: edit upm profile profile-name for block mode capability.
The following example shows how to create a profile named "P2":
# create upm profile p2 enable port 2:* disable port 3:1
