Class
Definition
Settings governing "legacy" mode (non-Wi-Fi Direct connections to the access point being advertised.)
This access point allows devices that do not support Wi-Fi Direct to connect to a device that does support it, and to use the services offered by the Wi-Fi Direct device. The connection does not serve as a general-purpose Wi-Fi access point.

Your code retrieves instances of this class through the WiFiDirectAdvertisement.LegacySettings property. It does not instantiate the class directly.
The SSID is initially set to a Wi-Fi Direct compatible random string beginning with ""DIRECT-"". Your code can change this value to a different SSID if you choose to do so.
The pass phrase is initialized to a random alphanumeric string. Your code can change this value to a different pass phrase if you choose to do so.
