DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE structure (windot11.h)
Important
WiFiCx is the new Wi-Fi driver model released in Windows 11. We recommend that you use WiFiCx to take advantage of the latest features. The WDI driver model is now in maintenance mode and will only receive high priority fixes.
The DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE structure specifies characteristics of additional information elements (IEs) for a BSS 802.11 Beacon or Probe Response frame.
Syntax
typedef struct _DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE {
NDIS_OBJECT_HEADER Header;
ULONG uBeaconIEsOffset;
ULONG uBeaconIEsLength;
ULONG uResponseIEsOffset;
ULONG uResponseIEsLength;
} DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE, *PDOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE;
Members
Header
The type, revision, and size of the DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE structure. This member is formatted as an NDIS_OBJECT_HEADER structure.
The miniport driver must set the members of Header to the following values:
Type
This member must be set to NDIS_OBJECT_TYPE_DEFAULT.
Revision
This member must be set to DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE_REVISION_1.
Size
This member must be set to sizeof(DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE).
For more information about these members, see NDIS_OBJECT_HEADER.
uBeaconIEsOffset
The offset of the additional IEs, in bytes, in the beacon frame sent by the NIC. This offset is relative to the start of the buffer that contains the DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE structure. The default value is 0.
uBeaconIEsLength
The length of the additional IEs, in bytes, in the beacon frame sent by the NIC. The default value is 0.
uResponseIEsOffset
The offset of the additional IEs, in bytes, in the probe response frame sent by the NIC. This offset is relative to the start of the buffer that contains the DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE structure. The default value is 0.
uResponseIEsLength
The length of the additional IEs, in bytes, in the probe response frame sent by the NIC. The default value is 0.
Remarks
This structure is used with OID_DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE.
The miniport driver should reset the members of the DOT11_ADDITIONAL_IE structure to the default values when it receives an OID_DOT11_RESET_REQUEST request.
