Properties
The following table lists the properties exposed by the WindowsAuthenticationSection class.
| Name | Description | 
|---|---|
| AuthPersistNonNTLM | A read/write boolean value. true if IIS automatically reauthenticates every non-NTLM (for example, Kerberos) request, even those on the same connection; otherwise, false. The default is false. .gif) Note: 
A setting of false means that the client will be authenticated only once on the same connection. IIS will cache a token or ticket on the server for a TCP session that stays established.
 | 
| AuthPersistSingleRequest | A read/write boolean value. true if IIS automatically reauthenticates every NTLM request, even those on the same connection; otherwise, false. The default is false. .gif) Note: 
A setting of false means that the client will be authenticated only once on the same connection. IIS will cache a token or ticket on the server for a TCP session that stays established.
 | 
| Enabled | A read/write boolean value. true if Integrated Windows authentication is enabled; otherwise, false. The default is false. | 
| Location | (Inherited from ConfigurationSection.) A key property. | 
| Path | (Inherited from ConfigurationSection.) A key property. | 
| Providers | An AuthenticationProviderSettings value that specifies security support providers that are used for Integrated Windows authentication. | 
| SectionInformation | (Inherited from ConfigurationSection.) | 
| UseKernelMode | A read/write boolean value. true if Integrated Windows authentication is done in kernel mode; otherwise, false. The default is true. .gif) Note: 
Using kernel mode improves authentication performance. However, if you want to use the Kerberos protocol in a Web farm, you may want to set this property to false.
