NDIS - Configuration Information

Hi,

I have a query regarding NDIS miniport drivers. When NIC is initialized,
miniport driver reads configuration

information from registry. I am not clear about the configuration
information.

Why configuration information is required from registry?

What is it purpose?

Also please send me some configuration items driver reads from registry?

Thanks

It is only *required* if your driver requires it. Common operational characteristics such as VLAN ID, MAC Address (override), etc. have standardized configuration names for uniform management. But ultimately, the miniport author decides what can be configured and therefore what settings are supported.

Good Luck,
