Wi-Fi Direct Group Owner Operation

Important  The Native 802.11 Wireless LAN interface is deprecated in Windows 10 and later. Please use the WLAN Device Driver Interface (WDI) instead. For more information about WDI, see WLAN Universal Windows driver model.

 

A Wi-Fi Direct Role port is configured in operation mode DOT11_OPERATION_MODE_WFD_GROUP_OWNER before it can function as a Group Owner. Once the operation mode is configured, the port should perform similar to DOT11_OPERATION_MODE_EXTENSIBLE_AP. It should follow the guidelines for the Extensible Access Point mode for starting and stopping the AP and for handling client associations and data packets. Except for the OIDs, NDIS_STATUS_INDICATION and Data Type exceptions listed in Wi-Fi Direct Reference Tables, it should handle all the OIDs and NDIS_STATUS_INDICATIONS and Data Types that a miniport driver is expected to support in Extensible Access Point mode. It should also continue to support the Wi-Fi Direct OIDs listed in Wi-Fi Direct Reference Tables.
