Configuration Service Provider Reference for Windows Mobile Devices
4/8/2010
The following table lists the configuration service providers that are available for Windows Mobile devices.
Note
Access to configuration service providers is determined by security roles. Because OEMs and mobile operators can selectively disallow access to configuration service providers, ask them about the availability. For more information about roles, see Security Roles and Default Roles for Configuration Service Providers.
Different configuration service providers have different options for delivery. The delivery options listed in the table below are:
- OMA Client Provisioning - Open Mobile Alliance Client Provisioning protocol
- OMA DM - Open Mobile Alliance Device Management protocol
- CPF - Cabinet Provisioning File
- RAPI - Remote Application Programming Interface while connected to a PC
| Configuration Service Provider | Description | Supported on Windows Mobile Standard | Supported on Windows Mobile Professional or Windows Mobile Classic | Delivery Options |
