NetAdapterSetLinkLayerCapabilities function (netadapter.h)

  • Article

Sets the link layer capabilities of the network adapter.

Syntax

void NetAdapterSetLinkLayerCapabilities(
  [_In_] NETADAPTER                          Adapter,
  [_In_] NET_ADAPTER_LINK_LAYER_CAPABILITIES *LinkLayerCapabilities
);

Parameters

[_In_] Adapter

The network adapter object that the client created in a prior call to NetAdapterCreate.

[_In_] LinkLayerCapabilities

A pointer to an allocated and initialized NET_ADAPTER_LINK_LAYER_CAPABILITIES structure.

Return value

None

Remarks

The client driver calls this function when starting a net adapter, before calling NetAdapterStart.

This function, along with a few other set capability functions (see below), is the replacement for the NDIS_MINIPORT_ADAPTER_GENERAL_ATTRIBUTES union that a (non-WDF) client of Ndis.sys sets by calling NdisMSetMiniportAttributes.

Requirements

Target Platform Universal
Minimum KMDF version 1.21
