Examples

The scenario for this code example is that a networking diagnostic tool for IT admins wants to ensure that connections to a corporate network have the correct authentication properties.

using Windows.Networking.Connectivity;

public class Diagnostics
{
    private async void LogToConsole(string output, string connectionProfileName)
    {
        // Implementation omitted for brevity.
    }
