An NDIS intermediate (IM) driver can intercept all send and receive
packets (more precisely: “frames”) directly above the data link layer.
There are two kinds of IMs: Filter and MUX. A filter IM sits between a
NIC driver and all protocols bound to it (1->1). A MUX IM implements
one or more virtual adapters that talk to one (n->1) or more (1->n or
even n->n) physical adapters (NICs).
