Allow Local Network Access (LNA) requests in subframes without explicit delegation

Computer and userIntune-readyLocalNetworkAccessPermissionsPolicyDefaultEnabled

Supported on Microsoft Edge version 146, Windows 7 or later

What it does

Controls whether Local Network Access (LNA) permissions are inherited by cross-origin subframes. By default, Local Network Access permissions can be requested in cross-origin subframes only if they are explicitly delegated. If you enable this policy, subframes inherit all LNA Permissions Policy features by default and can make local network requests, which trigger the permission prompt. If you disable or don't configure this policy, subframes must be explicitly delegated the Permissions Policy feature to make local network requests and trigger the permission prompt. This policy applies to the Permissions Policy features "local-network-access", "loopback-network", and "local-network". For more information about Local Network Access, see https://learn.microsoft.com/deployedge/ms-edge-local-network-access.

  • The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
