Hello Matthieu,

Since not every combination of LogonLevel and ValidationLevel are valid, for certain values of LogonLevel, the possible ValidationLevel values are restricted.  The code needs to check if the ValidationLevel matches correctly as specified in the document. Purpose of Windows behavior note <273> is to specify which versions of Windows implementations perform such verification.


We will simplify the wording to convey this meaning.
 
"<273> Section 3.5.4.5.1: Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2 support verifying whether correct combination of LogonLevel and ValidationLevel are supplied."


Note: Similar to WBN 273 as you've pointed out, WBN <274> will also need same clarification.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this. 

Regards,
Sreekanth Nadendla

Dear dochelp

Note 273 is worded like this:
"<273> Section 3.5.4.5.1: Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2 support validation of LogonLevel with ValidationLevel."

I don't understand this note what validation of LogonLevel with ValidationLevel means ?

Thanks you.
