This link has some info on the agent registration process if you haven't
seen it:
https://dev.prelude-ids.com/wiki/prelude/InstallingAgentRegistration

At any rate, if you think about the process, you register the agent, in this
case your snort profile with the prelude manager - which has the
prelude-manager profile there.  You want all your agents registered and
communicating with a central manager or relay manager.  So the profiles are
for different distinct components, an agent and a manager - hence the
different names.

Hope that helps.
