Azure Virtual WAN offers two types of connectivity for User VPN (P2S) remote users: global and hub-based. Use the following sections to learn about profile types and how to download them.

## Global profile
21
17
22
18
The global profile associated with a User VPN configuration points to a load balancer that includes all active User VPN hubs that are using that User VPN configuration. A user connected to the global profile is directed to the hub that's closest to the user's geographic location. This type of connectivity is useful when users travel to different locations frequently.
23
19
24
20
For example, you can associate a VPN configuration with two Virtual WAN hubs, one in West US and one in Southeast Asia. If a user connects to the global profile associated with the User VPN configuration, they'll connect to the closest Virtual WAN hub based on their location.

> If a Point-to-site VPN configuration used for a global profile is configured to authenticate users using the RADIUS protocol, make sure "Use Remote/On-premises RADIUS server" is turned on for all Point-to-site VPN Gateways using that configuration. Additionally, ensure your RADIUS server is configured to accept authentication requests from the RADIUS proxy IP addresses of **all** Point-to-site VPN Gateways using this VPN configuration.

### Include or exclude a hub from a global profile

By default, every hub that uses a specific User VPN configuration is included in the corresponding global VPN profile. You can choose to exclude a hub from the global VPN profile. If you do, a user won't be load balanced to connect to that hub's gateway if they're using the global VPN profile.
