Remarks

SkipAuthentication can be used to implement a proprietary authentication flow. When SkipAuthentication is called, Windows checks the current Internet connectivity status over the corresponding network interface. Thus, applications implementing their own authentication should call this API when their authentication sequence is completed.

Once IssueCredentials is called, the authentication context is finalized and IssueCredentials, AbortAuthentication, or SkipAuthentication should not be called again.
