3/26/2014

This topic includes the NDIS 5.x legacy structures that are referenced by NDIS 6.0 and related topics.

In This Section

• MediaSpecificInformation
  Contains information about the characteristics of the network hardware that is bound to a protocol

• NDIS_ENCAPSULATION_FORMAT
  Used for the EncapsulationFormat member of the NDIS_TASK_OFFLOAD_HEADER structure.

• NDIS_MAC_FRAGMENT
  Contains information associated with a fragment indication made by a WAN network adapter miniport

• NDIS_MAC_LINE_DOWN
  Contains information associated with a line-down indication made by a WAN network adapter miniport

• NDIS_MAC_LINE_UP
  Contains information associated with a line-up indication made by a WAN network adapter miniport

• NDIS_MINIPORT_CHARACTERISTICS
  Used to register a driver's miniport entry points and name with the NDIS library

• NDIS_PACKET
  Contains chained buffer descriptors

• NDIS_PACKET_EXTENSION
  Points to or contains per-packet information associated with a packet descriptor.

• NDIS_PACKET_OOB_DATA
  Contains out-of-band (OOB) information associated with a packet descriptor

• NDIS_PM_PACKET_PATTERN
  Specifies a wake-up pattern, which, when detected by a network adapter that has pattern-match enabled, causes the network adapter to signal a power-management wake-up event

• NDIS_PM_WAKE_UP_CAPABILITIES
  Specifies the wake-up capabilities for a network adapter

• NDIS_PNP_CAPABILITIES
  Requests a miniport to return the wake-up capabilities of its network adapter or requests an intermediate driver to return the intermediate driver's wake-up capabilities

• NDIS_PROTOCOL_CHARACTERISTICS
  Used to specify the version numbers and various callback functions for a protocol

• NDIS_REQUEST
  A packet set up by NDIS or by a protocol for a call to the NdisRequest function

• NDIS_TAPI_GET_ID
  Used by OID_TAPI_GET_ID when it requests the miniport driver to return a device identifier for the specified device class associated with the selected line, address, or call

• NDIS_TAPI_MAKE_CALL
  Used by OID_TAPI_MAKE_CALL when it requests the miniport driver to place a call on the specified line to the specified destination address

• NDIS_TASK_OFFLOAD
  Specifies a network adapter's capabilities for performing a particular type of task offloaded from the TCP/IP transport

• NDIS_TASK_OFFLOAD_HEADER
  Contains the encapsulation format for send and receive packets on which a miniport may perform tasks offloaded from the TCP/IP transport

• NDIS_TASK_TCP_IP_CHECKSUM
  Contains information that is used in offloading checksum tasks from the TCP/IP transport to a network adapter

• NDIS_TASK_TCP_LARGE_SEND
  Contains the miniport's network adapter capabilities for segmenting large TCP packets into smaller packets, if supplied by a miniport in response to a query of OID_TCP_TASK_OFFLOAD

• NDIS_WAN_GET_LINK_INFO
  Formats information for OID_WAN_GET_LINK_INFO

• NDIS_WAN_INFO
  Formats information for OID_WAN_GET_INFO

• NDIS_WAN_PACKET
  Contains the packet that is passed to the MiniportWanSend functions of WAN network adapter drivers

• NDIS_WAN_SET_LINK_INFO
  Formats information for OID_WAN_SET_LINK_INFO

• NDISUIO_REQUEST_NOTIFICATION
  Used by IOCTL_NDISUIO_REQUEST_NOTIFICATION to subscribe to adapter-related notifications

• NETWORK_ADDRESS
  Describes the network-layer addresses that help define NETWORK_ADDRESS_LIST

• NETWORK_ADDRESS_LIST
  Set the list of network-layer addresses on a bound interface

• TRANSPORT_HEADER_OFFSET
  Indicates the size of additional headers for packets that a particular transport sends and receives

• VAR_STRING
  An object-specific structured information buffer
