CM_NetEntries Configuration Service Provider

4/8/2010

The CM_NetEntries Configuration Service Provider configures additional network entries such as Desktop Passthrough (DTPT) or Wired Netcard, on a Windows Mobile device.

The CM_NetEntries Configuration Service Provider is used to configure an association with an Internet or Private network on Windows Mobile.

The nocharacteristic tag will work on the top two levels to delete all, or specific, entries.

The following table shows the default settings. The default security role maps to each subnode unless specific permission is granted to the sub node.

The following image shows the Configuration Service Provider in tree format as used by OMA Client Provisioning.

Characteristics

• <entryname>
  User-friendly, unique name for the network connection. This characteristic sets the name of the connection. This parameter also typically identifies which type of network connection is defined by the characteristic, for example, CurrentDTPTNetwork or CurrentWirelessNetwork.

Parameters

• Adapter
  Used in the <entryname> characteristic to specify the fully qualified name of a wireless adapter.

  The following table shows the default settings.

  Permissions	Read/Write
  Data type	String
  Roles allowed to query and update setting	Manager AuthenticatedUser

• AlwaysOn
  Used in the <entryname> characteristic to specify whether the connection supports AlwaysOn. Permitted values are false (AlwaysOn not supported) and true (AlwaysOn supported).

  The following table shows the default settings.

  Permissions	Read/Write
  Data type	Boolean
  Roles allowed to query and update setting	Manager AuthenticatedUser

• Desc.<langid>
  Used in the <entryname> characteristic. A tag in the format of Desc.<langid> is used as the language-specific identifier for that entry. For example, if the field <parm name="Desc.0409" value="GPRS Connection" /> is set, "GPRS Connection" appears in the UI to identify this connection when the device is set to the English language (language ID 0409).

  Descriptions for multiple languages may be provisioned using this mechanism, and the operating system automatically switches among them if the user changes language preferences on the device. If no <langid> is specified, <langid> must be replaced with <Default>. If no <Desc> tag is provisioned for a specific language, the system defaults to the characteristic tag name used to create the entry.

  Permissions	Read/Write
  Roles allowed to query and update setting	Manager AuthenticatedUser

• DestId
  Used in the <entryname> characteristic as a GUID that represents the unique ID of the network to which this entry connects. See the Connmgr.h header for predefined GUID values IID_DestNet*.

  The following table shows the default values.

  Permissions	Read/Write
  Data type	String
  Label	Connects to
  Roles allowed to query and update setting	Manager AuthenticatedUser

• Secure
  Specifies in the <entryname> characteristic if a connection is more secure. Permitted values are false (not secure) and true (more secure).

  The following table shows the default settings.

  Permissions	Read/Write
  Data type	Boolean
  Roles allowed to query and update setting	Manager AuthenticatedUser

Microsoft Custom Elements
