NDIS5.x IM Filter Driver

Hello there,

we currently have a NDIS5.x IM Filter Driver and would like to certified it.

From my understanding using the latest WLK, the category is unclassified.

I was curious to know if anyone here ever tried to certified a NDIS5.x IM Filter Driver ?

Thanks

Sylvain Boily

Yes. Use the WLK “Unclassified” category. You must make two test runs: one for the service and one for the miniport. Put both results into one submission package.

Thank you Thomas for your input.

I tried doing the following and DTM keeps telling me that there is no device on the current PC.

I doubled check and my IM filter is correctly installed. I am poiting to the same INF that was used to install the device.

I wasn’t too sure that it was supported that’s why I asked before investigating more.

So 1 more question, I should be able to run test on the mydevice.inf and mydevice_m.inf on both Vista and XP (32 or 64bit) without any problem ?

I don’t recall having an miniport. I know one of them shows as NET and the other one shows as NETSERVICE.

Thanks

DTM is a pain for sure. Should work on XP and Vista. I have done this on XP, Vista x86 and Vista x64, and will be doing it again in the next week or so. I’ll try to keep better notes. Perhaps a video. :slight_smile:

Are your INF’s self-signed properly? Do they pass the checkinf test?

I put the driver “packages” (INFs, CATs, SYSs, etc) on a share on the DTM server, then install on the test client from the share. No particular requirement for this…

The NET INF is the “miniport” INF.
