Remarks

In order to set a plan purchase APN or an Internet connection APN, the mobile network operator (MNO) should specify the XML profiles that correspond to these states as part of this element.
The child elements in this element are optional. If these are not specified, the APN values from the COSA database included with Windows are used to help the user get connected.
Typically, only users in the Administrators security group are allowed to perform PIN unlock operations on their Mobile Broadband SIMs. However, setting the AllowStandardUserPinUnlock element to true allows the mobile operator to specify whether standard users are allowed to perform this function.
