When queried, this OID requests that the miniport driver return the value of the dot11CountryString management information base (MIB) object.

Note

Support for OID_DOT11_COUNTRY_STRING is mandatory if the 802.11 station supports more than one regulatory domain. For more information about how the miniport driver specifies its support for regulatory domains, see OID_DOT11_MULTI_DOMAIN_CAPABILITY_IMPLEMENTED.

The data type for this OID is the DOT11_COUNTRY_STRING structure.

The 802.11 station sets the dot11CountryString MIB object from the value of the country/region Information Element (IE) from the 802.11 Beacon or Probe Response frames received within the basic service set (BSS) network to which the station has connected. For more information about this IE, refer to Clause 7.3.2.12 of the IEEE 802.1d-2001 standard.

When queried by OID_DOT11_COUNTRY_STRING, the miniport driver must fail the request if the following conditions are true:

  • If the miniport driver does not support more than one regulatory domain, it must fail the query request by returning NDIS_STATUS_BAD_VERSION from its MiniportOidRequest function. The miniport driver specifies its support of regulatory domains in response to queries of OID_DOT11_MULTI_DOMAIN_CAPABILITY_IMPLEMENTED.
  • If the miniport driver supports more than one regulatory domain but this capability is currently disabled, it must fail the query request by returning NDIS_STATUS_INVALID_DATA from its MiniportOidRequest function. The miniport driver specifies the status of the multiple regulatory domain support in response to queries of OID_DOT11_MULTI_DOMAIN_CAPABILITY_ENABLED.
  • If the 802.11 station is performing a scan request, the miniport driver must fail the query request by returning NDIS_STATUS_MEDIA_IN_USE from its MiniportOidRequest function. For more information about scan requests, see OID_DOT11_SCAN_REQUEST.
