Application tab
The Application tab is used to specify application settings, configure SMTP settings and enable or disable debugging and tracing apart from other uses.[3] The Application tab interacts with the configuration file of the application (web.config) and not with the ASPNETDB database.[4] Application settings are created as objects and inserted as name-value pairs in the web.config file.[4]
Provider tab
The Provider tab is used to specify the database provider for the ASPNETDB database used to store ASP.NET membership and role information.[3][5] The security page does not appear unless and until the database provider is specified in the Providers tab. An SQL Data provider is generally used, but Oracle Data providers are also used in case of Oracle databases. The provider allows the user the option of to store all data related to the ASP.NET Website Administration tool or different databases for each purpose.
Internals
Apart from these tabs, there are a number of other features and components associated with the ASP.NET Web Administration tool. The ASP.NET Configuration APIs which the ASP.NET Web Site Administration tool makes use of to access and modify the security and application settings in the Web.config file is one of them.
