Hi,

Can anyone throw light on which API/IOCTL should an application use to
receive PnP notifications ( insertion/removal of a network card) ?

Hi… Did you look at the DDK? SDK? Google for this topic?

Anyhow, If you’re insterested in a particular network device, your app
registers for device notifications:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/devio/base/registering_for_device_notification.asp

Look at the rest of the documentation for similar registrations,

I think you are looking for RegisterDeviceNotification API.

cheers!
