cmstp: Install silently without any prompts.
$ cmstp /s "${path\to\profile_file}"
try on your machine

The command cmstp /s "${path\to\profile_file}" is used to install a connection manager profile (VPN or Dial-Up profile) on a Windows machine.

Here's an explanation of the different elements in the command:

  • cmstp: It is the executable file for the Connection Manager Profile Installer.
  • /s: It is a switch that stands for "silent mode" or "unattended mode". When specified, it means that the installation will occur silently without displaying any user interface.
  • ${path\to\profile_file}: This is the path to the profile file you want to install. You need to replace ${path\to\profile_file} with the actual path to the profile file on your system. The profile file generally has the extension .cmp.

So, when you run this command, the Connection Manager Profile Installer (cmstp) is executed in silent mode (/s), and it installs the connection manager profile located at the specified path.
