The MembershipSection class provides a way to programmatically access and modify the membership section of a configuration file.

This example demonstrates how to specify values declaratively for several attributes of the membership section, which can also be accessed as members of the MembershipSection class.

The following configuration file example shows how to specify values declaratively for the membership section.

<system.web>
   <membership defaultProvider = "AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
      userIsOnlineTimeWindow = "15">
      <providers>
         <add name = "AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
            type = "System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web,
               Version=2.0.3600.0, Culture=neutral,
               PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
            connectionStringName = "LocalSqlServer"
            passwordAttemptThreshold = "5"
            passwordAttemptWindow = "10"
            enablePasswordRetrieval = "false"
            enablePasswordReset = "true"
            requiresQuestionAndAnswer = "true"
            applicationName = "/"
            requiresUniqueEmail = "false"
            passwordFormat = "Hashed"
            description = "Stores and retrieves membership data from
               the local Microsoft SQL Server database."
         />
      </providers>
   </membership>
</system.web>
