how to control miniport from user mode

NTDEV
1

Hi,All:
I want to build a miniport driver by NDIS,I want to control my NIC from miniport driver.One way I find in DDK is use Query or Set Information function provide by NDIS,but use this mothod,we must build my own protocol driver two send
this request.
I want to use IRP to communicate with use mode application,such as CreateFile,but when the miniport register to NDIS.The ndis library take over the IRP. I want to create addition device in miniport and can use IRP.Then I will needn’t build addition control protocol driver.
Who can tell me is it possible and how could I do?
Sincerely thinks.

Assuming you’re writing an NDIS 5 (Win2K/XP) driver, use
NdisMRegisterDevice.

To send OIDs directly to your miniport use DeviceIoControl with
IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS for the control code:
DeviceIoControl(
hDevice,
IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS,
&oidCode,
sizeof(oidCode),
pszBuffer,
*dwBufferLength,
&dwReturnedLength,
NULL
) )

Try NdisMRegisterDevice.

Thank you! Scott,Roman Geller,Maxim,Thanks for your help
I will try function NdisMRegisterDevice.
If I succeed,I will make a report for it.

you can use DeviceIoControl with IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS in the user
mode without NdisMRegisterDevice in your driver.
Send DeviceIoControl to the device that PnP created on your behalf.

Roman Geller:
If I don’t call NdisMRegisterDevice,when I call CreateFile,which device could I open?
