Child elements

ElementTypeDescription
connectivity

Contains IHV-related connectivity settings.

OUI

Contains a 3 byte hexBinary that identifies the IHV.

OUIHeader

Identifies the IHV.

security

Contains IHV-specific security settings. Microsoft security settings and IHV security settings are mutually exclusive. The entire profile is invalid if both security settings are present.

type

Contains a 1 byte hexBinary that is used to differentiate NICs by the same IHV.

useMSOneX boolean

Specifies the origin of 802.1X security settings used by an IHV security component. When useMSOneX is true, IHV security components use Microsoft-defined 802.1X settings. When useMSOneX is false, IHV security components use vendor-supplied 802.1X settings. By default, useMSOneX is false. This element is optional.
