MMC Snap-In for ASP.NET

This section contains topics that describe how to use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in to configure ASP.NET and ASP.NET applications. The MMC snap-in for ASP.NET works with IIS 6.0 or earlier. The IIS 7.0 administration tool includes the functionality of the ASP.NET MMC tool. For more information, see ASP.NET and IIS Configuration.

MMC hosts administrative tools that you can use to administer computers, services, other system components, and networks. You can add one or more of these administrative tools, called snap-ins, to the console to manage a Web application. The ASP.NET Snap-In tool for Microsoft Management Console (MMC) provides a one-stop user interface (UI) to configure Web servers and the applications they host. It includes several dialog boxes that let you manage specific features, such as custom error handling or user authentication.
