Important

This topic is part of the WDI driver model released in Windows 10. The WDI driver model is in maintenance mode and will only receive high priority fixes. WiFiCx is the Wi-Fi driver model released in Windows 11. We recommend that you use WiFiCx to take advantage of the latest features.

OID_WDI_GET_BSS_ENTRY_LIST is used to ask the adapter to indicate the list of BSS networks that have been cached by the port.

Scope Set serialized with task Normal execution time (seconds)
Port Set not supported 1

This is only used for an adapter that perform BSS list caching. When acting as a client, the port must report the BSS entry for the access point. In addition, if the port is performing background scans, it should report BSS entries that it has discovered in its scan.

When this request is received by the adapter, it must send NDIS_STATUS_WDI_INDICATION_BSS_ENTRY_LIST indications to the Microsoft component. These indications must contain the BSS entries that match the Get parameters. The adapter can send one or more NDIS_STATUS_WDI_INDICATION_BSS_ENTRY_LIST indications, but they must be completed before the property completes.

The Microsoft component uses the list of indicated entries to report the BSS list to the operation system. It is also used to populate parameters for roam and connect tasks.
