For running states, no action is required of the notification handler unless an error occurs. Running states occur during the connection operations that RAS handles automatically, such as connecting to necessary devices, user authentication, and waiting for a callback from the remote access server. The notification serves as a progress report to the client.
The client can pass notifications to a user. In some running states, the client might display additional information to a user. For example, a notification handler that receives a RASCS_ConnectDevice state can call the RasGetConnectStatus function to get the name and type of the device connected to. Another example is when the client receives a RASCS_Projected state. This occurs when the RAS projection phase of the connection operation is complete.
