Does the Network Connectivity Assistant do anything other than support "Direct Access"?

Trying to fix an ongoing DC failover issue has me combing through DCDIAG outputs.

I keep seeing this on the outputs for two of my DCs:

An error event occurred.  EventID: 0xC0001B70
Time Generated: 09/09/2021   12:21:32
Event String:
The Network Connectivity Assistant service terminated with the following service-specific error: 
The request is not supported.

Seems to fire off every minute or two if this DCDIAG output is anything to go by (it captures this as part of checking system logs).

I don't think it's part of my problem but while I'm at it I figure I would resolve it too. Looking into what this is, it seems like it only supports Direct Access - which isn't something I've ever messed with. Certainly Google leads me that way anyways. I don't have any kind of VPN setup here on my systems, just a switch with some VLANs that I don't even manage.

It's a triggered, manual Service that dies when I run it - throwing up a dialogue box saying the same thing as above (The Request is Not Supported). Little to go on online.

Does this service do anything other than support Direct Access? Is there a way to find out what on earth is triggering it constantly?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
