Just to avoid the confusion regarding MVPN profiles in the future
Cause NG-MVPN could be RSVP or mLDP based and there is Rosen in there as well
So I suggest using descriptions:

Rosen-mGRE profiles (profiles- 0, 3,11)
Rosen-mLDP profiles (profiles- 1,9, 12, 13,17)
mLDP profiles (profiles- 2,4,5,14,15)
inband mLDP profiles (profiles- 6,7)

List of profiles:
Profile 0 Default MDT - GRE - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 1 Default MDT - MLDP  MP2MP  PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 2 Partitioned MDT - MLDP MP2MP - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 3 Default MDT - GRE - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 4 Partitioned MDT - MLDP MP2MP - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 5 Partitioned MDT - MLDP P2MP - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 6 VRF MLDP - In-Band Signaling
Profile 7 Global MLDP In-band Signaling
Profile 8 Global Static - P2MP-TE
Profile 9 Default MDT - MLDP - MP2MP - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 10 VRF Static - P2MP TE - BGP-AD
Profile 11 Default MDT - GRE - BGP-AD - BGP C-mcast Signaling
Profile 12 Default MDT -  MLDP - P2MP - BGP-AD - BGP C-mcast Signaling
Profile 13 Default MDT - MLDP - MP2MP - BGP-AD - BGP C-mcast Signaling
Profile 14 Partitioned MDT - MLDP P2MP - BGP-AD - BGP C-mast Signaling
Profile 15 Partitioned MDT - MLDP MP2MP - BGP-AD - BGP C-mast Signaling
Profile 16 Default MDT Static - P2MP TE - BGP-AD - BGP C-mcast Signaling
Profile 17 Default MDT - MLDP - P2MP - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 18 Default Static MDT - P2MP TE - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 19 Default MDT - IR - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 20 Default MDT - P2MP-TE - BGP-AD - PIM - C-mcast Signaling
Profile 21 Default MDT - IR - BGP-AD - BGP - C-mcast Signaling
Profile 22 Default MDT - P2MP-TE - BGP-AD BGP - C-mcast Signaling
Profile 23 Partitioned MDT - IR - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 24 Partitioned MDT - P2MP-TE - BGP-AD - PIM C-mcast Signaling
Profile 25 Partitioned MDT -  IR - BGP-AD - BGP C-mcast Signaling
Profile 26 Partitioned MDT - P2MP TE - BGP-AD - BGP C-mcast Signaling
