Device "Nal Service" was added

Hi,

I updated my Ethernet chip (NVM Update Utility for Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet PHY Network Connection) and now GlassWire tells me: Device “Nal Service” was added. Does anyone know this device? I can’t find anything about it on the internet.

Thanks,

Marco

I have never heard of it, but I found this thread: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/e178b73d-d81b-4174-a507-c7449a4f95ed/nal-network-location-awareness-service-keeps-disabling-itself-on-win7?forum=w7itpronetworking

Maybe it’s helpful? Unfortunately there wasn’t much info there either.

It seems to be an app to provide "network friendliness " in allowing media to stream in video H264 etc and communications, Its certainly not a virus .

Thanks, do you have a link to this info?

I just inputted =what is NALservice but if you dont get what I got then its down to your search engine . I use Duck Duck Go -safe and doesnt divert me to websites IT thinks I should go to which are usually ones that have paid the search engine company .

Ah, Wikipedia topic Network_Abstraction_Layer (can’t post links yet)
