Hi, all
I’m developping a NDIS Miniport driver in Win2000.
There are some selection in the NIC’s “advanced” property page.
by which means does the miniport driver get notified if the
selection is changed ?

Try IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS.
It can set data too.

but selection of “advanced” porperty page do not send
“IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS” request to
my miniport driver. Even if the driver receive
“IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS” request,
it still doesn’t know which selection has been changed.

Help me !

The system simply reloads the Miniport driver instance for which any
“advanced” parameters have been changed by the user.

Note that the MiniportReconfigure() function should do exactly what
you think its name implies, but the docs say:

“MiniportReconfigure is an function that the NDIS library currently
never calls but that a MiniportInitialize function can call as an
internal driver function.”

IM drivers can use their ProtocolPnPEvent() handler with event
‘NetEventReconfigure’ to reconfigure their protocol and/or Miniport.
