Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service in Windows allows to share Internet connection on your computer with other devices in your local network (via Wi-Fi or Ethernet). This allows all computers on the local network to access the Internet via an Internet connection on one computer (the computer may be connected to the Internet via 5G/4G/LTE modem, direct cable connection via a second adapter, satellite connection, PPPoE, VPN, etc.). In this case, this Windows computer with two network interfaces connected to different networks will be a network gateway to other devices. ICS is a built-in Windows service that provides network connection sharing, address translation (NAT), and DHCP server functionality.
