Filter Module Synchronous OID Requests

To support the Synchronous OID request path, filter drivers provide a FilterSynchronousOidRequest function entry point in the NDIS_FILTER_DRIVER_CHARACTERISTICS structure when they call the NdisFRegisterFilterDriver function.

Note

NDIS 6.81 supports specific OIDs for use with the Synchronous OID request interface. OIDs that existed before NDIS 6.80 and some NDIS 6.80 OIDs are not supported. To determine if an OID can be used in the Synchronous OID request interface, see the OID reference page.

To support the Synchronous OID request interface, use the documentation for the standard OID request interface. The following table shows the relationship between the functions in the Synchronous OID request interface and the standard OID request interface.
