One of the most important things to know about creating profiles is that every change you make affects everything that the profile is applied to. While you are making a change to a profile, it would be good to see everywhere that a profile is applied to see what would be affected. That is where the "show reference" button comes in. When you click on the "show reference" button while you are in a profile, it shows you everywhere that profile is applied. Attached are two screenshots as an example.
The "show references" command shows you the same thing, via the cli:
(M3.arubanetworks.com) #show references aaa profile aruba-HomeNet
References to AAA Profile "aruba-HomeNet"
