XNetworkingConnectivityLevelHint

Defines connectivity level hints for a device.

Syntax

enum class XNetworkingConnectivityLevelHint  : uint32_t
{
    Unknown = 0,
    None = 1,
    LocalAccess = 2,
    InternetAccess = 3,
    ConstrainedInternetAccess = 4,
}

Constants

Constant	Description
Unknown	Connectivity level is unknown.
None	No connectivity.
LocalAccess	Local network access only.
InternetAccess	Local and internet access.
ConstrainedInternetAccess	Limited internet access.

Remarks

This enumeration defines the current connectivity level hints for a device.

Note

The connectivity level hint is a best-effort guess by a device about the current state of the network based on a summary of the network traffic on the device.

An Unknown connectivity level occurs when the network is not initialized.

The ConstrainedInternetAccess value indicates captive portal connectivity, where local access to a web portal is provided, but access to the internet requires that specific credentials are provided via the portal. This level of connectivity is generally encountered when using connections hosted in public locations (such as coffee shops and book stores). However, the value does not guarantee detection of a captive portal. Titles should also determine whether the captive portal can be reached using a URL for the captive portal, or by attempting to access a public web site which then redirects to the captive portal when LocalAccess is reported.
