1.7 Versioning and Capability Negotiation

This document covers versioning issues in the following areas:

  • Security and Authentication Methods: The Near Field Proximity: Sharing Protocol relies on the underlying NFPB protocol for versioning. As specified in [MS-NFPB], the underlying Session Factory service has bound algorithms for each version of the service. If, in the future, security and/or authentication methods require updating, the use of this protocol will trigger updated behavior on the underlying negotiated Session Factory service version.

  • Capability Negotiation: This protocol relies on the underlying NFPB protocol for explicit capability negotiation as specified in section 3.2.3.
