Tool to change all network settings

Does anyone know of a tool to change "all" the network settings easily? I use my laptop on various LAN's for my work and every LAN has its own set of proxies (with or without authentication), firewalls, IP- and DNS-settings, ... It's annoying to set them, but it's even more annyoing to keep track of all settings per LAN.

Does anyone know of a tool to keep a list of all the seperate settings and change between them easily? Something like Arch's network profile but more extensive, with proxy support (HTTP(S), FTP, ...) aswell.

Re: Tool to change all network settings

I want to configure more than just the NIC settings. I also want to switch proxies.
