Connection Sharing Discovery and Control Component Description</H1>
<P>This component allows client computers on a local area network (LAN) to
access the Internet through a single shared Internet connection on an edge
computer, which functions as the host. Because this client-side component is
fully compliant with Universal Plug and Play (UPnP), any UPnP-compliant Network
Address Translation (NAT) device can be discovered and controlled using this
component. In addition to a user interface (UI), this component exposes a
scriptable application programming interface (API) to configure the host
NAT<EFBFBD>specifically, static port mappings. </P>
<H1>Component Configuration</H1>
<P>This component requires Component Object Model (COM) registration.</P>
<H1>Special Notes</H1>
<P>The Internet Connection Sharing client component (hnetcfg.dll) depends on
netman.dll, netshell.dll, and the Windows shell, known as Windows Explorer.
Specifically, the Network Connections service must be running. In addition, the
msxml.dll that ships with Internet Explorer 5.01 or later is required.</P>
<H1>For More Information</H1>
<P>For more information about the Connection Sharing API in the platform
software development kit (SDK), see this <A
