3.3.1.2 Group Policy Extension Administrative Plug-In

The Group Policy extension Administrative Plug-In is an entity that determines a specific Group Policy extension for updating and reading that Group Policy extension's settings to and from a GPO, but it does not understand how to alter a GPO. However, it is capable of invoking the Group Policy: Core Protocol's Group Policy extension update sequence. In common usage, the Group Policy Protocol administrative tool invokes the plug-in as specified in section 3.3.4.7.
