Hi,
How do we access the NPS through .NET / SDK program?.
ServerMangercmd.exe helps to access and control the NPS. But it may be
costlier operation for controlling the server through UI.

Please give a sample code/program to access the NPS and print the
configuration with out using servermangercmd.exe.

Thanks and regards,
Bala

Hi Bala --

Not sure I understand the question as I am not a dev, however you can use
the netsh nps commands to display and/or save the configuration to a file
(from which you could print), and to manage the NPS server in general.

Hope that helps --

Thanks James for the response.
Yes. We can use netsh NPS command to control and retreive NPS server, which
still use command line interface. But it could be helpful for us to get the
sample .ASP and C# code using SDOIASLib.

Thanks and Regards,
Bala

Hi Bala,

As you have posted this query regarding .net Api for accessing NPS server
configuration.

Can you please let me know about this if you have got anything.

It is really urgent for me.

Thanks in advance.

In the event that you might not be aware of this, and just in case you
find it useful, there is a full range of Network Shell commands that you
can use to configure Network Policy Server.

For more information, please see "Netsh Commands for Network Policy Server"

In addition to this information, you can find NPS API information at MSDN:

NPS includes two API sets: NPS Extensions API and Server Data Objects (SDO)
API. Both NPS Extensions API and SDO API are also supported by the
precursor of NPS, the Internet Authentication Service.

NPS Extensions API can be used to extend the authentication, authorization,
and accounting methods offered by NPS and previously by IAS.

Server Data Objects API can be used to manipulate the network policy
configuration on a computer that runs NPS or IAS.
