This section provides links to topics that contain information about general networking technologies that are supported.

In This Section

• Extensible Authentication Protocol
  Provides information about Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology provides a standardized support mechanism for authentication schemes such as token cards, certificates, Public Key, and S/Key.

• TCP/IP
  Provides information about TCP/IP support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology supports a set of protocols that allow cooperating computers and devices to share resources across a network.

• Internet Protocol Version 6
  Provides information about Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology provides a suite of standard protocols that is the next generation of network layer protocols for the Internet. IPv6 is a connectionless, unreliable protocol used primarily for addressing and routing packets between hosts.

• Windows Networking API/Redirector
  Provides information about Windows Networking API/Redirector support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology manages network connections and accesses remote file systems and printers.

• Windows Sockets
  Provides information about Windows Sockets support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology is used to discover and use the communications capabilities of underlying transport protocols. It enables programmers to create advanced Internet, intranet, and other network-capable applications to transmit application data across the wire, independent of the network protocol being used.

• Domain Discovery
  Provides information about Domain Discovery support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology enables a Windows Embedded CE device to discover an Active Directory server to query.

• Firewall
  Provides information about IP Firewall support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology helps protect the device on which it runs and helps to protect devices on the private side of the gateway. The firewall blocks IP traffic at the IP and transport layers.

• Internet Connection Sharing
  Provides information about Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology supports a collection of technologies that work together to enable multiple devices on a private network to share a single Internet connection.

• NDIS Packet Capturing
  Provides information about NDIS Packet Capturing support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology captures network traffic so that it can be read by the Microsoft Windows Network Monitor (NetMon).

• Network Bridging
  Provides information about Network Bridging support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology interconnects network segments in a multiple-segment network by forwarding frames from one segment to another.

• Network Utilities
  Provides information about Network Utilities support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology provides utilities for troubleshooting various network problems.

• Network User Interface
  Provides information on the Network User Interface (NetUI) that defines configuration settings for the Network and Dial-up Connections icon in Control Panel.

• IPSec v4
  Provides information about IPSec support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology enables Windows Embedded CE-based devices to participate in networks that are secured by IPSec.

• Reference Gateway User Interface
  Provides information about the gateway user interface (UI) that is included in Windows Embedded CE. This Catalog item includes a set of .htm pages that can be used for a headless gateway device.

• Remote Configuration Framework
  Provides information about Remote Configuration Framework support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology provides the structure for creating Web-based user interfaces for headless devices.

• USB Flash Config Tool
  Provides information about Windows Connect Now support in Windows Embedded CE. This technology provides a mechanism to automate the configuration of wireless networks (AP and STA). The technology uses the subset of an XML schema supported in Windows XP SP2.
