Setting Port Authentication Parameters

NDIS and overlying drivers use an OID_GEN_PORT_AUTHENTICATION_PARAMETERS OID set request to set the current state of an NDIS port. Miniport drivers that support NDIS ports must support this OID.

If the set request is successful, the miniport driver uses the receive port direction, port control state, and authenticate state from an NDIS_PORT_AUTHENTICATION_PARAMETERS structure.

The miniport should generate an NDIS_STATUS_PORT_STATE status indication to notify overlying drivers of any state changes.
