DOT11_SEND_INVITATION_REQUEST_PARAMETERS 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 request parameters for an invitation request are specified in a DOT11_SEND_INVITATION_REQUEST_PARAMETERS structure. This structure is sent with an OID_DOT11_WFD_SEND_INVITATION_REQUEST request to the miniport.

Members
Header
The type, revision, and size of the DOT11_SEND_INVITATION_REQUEST_PARAMETERS structure. The required settings for the members of Header are the following.
| Member | Setting |
|---|---|
| Type | NDIS_OBJECT_TYPE_DEFAULT |
| Revision | DOT11_SEND_INVITATION_REQUEST_PARAMETERS_REVISION_1 |
| Size | DOT11_SIZEOF_SEND_INVITATION_REQUEST_PARAMETERS_REVISION_1 |
DialogToken
The dialog token to send in the invitation request packet.
PeerDeviceAddress
The destination address of the WFD device receiving the invitation request packet.
uSendTimeout
The maximum time, in milliseconds, allowed to send the invitation request. If the time-out expires before the miniport has successfully transmitted the invitation request, it should indicate the NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_WFD_INVITATION_REQUEST_SEND_COMPLETE with a failure status.
MinimumConfigTimeout
The configuration time-out required by the system to change its mode of operation to a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Group Owner or a P2P Client. The miniport driver can set this with a larger value if necessary.
InvitationFlags
The operation flags for the P2P invitation procedure.
GroupBSSID
The BSSID used by the P2P Group Owner for its P2P Group.
bUseGroupBSSID
If TRUE, the BSSID in GroupBSSID is included in the invitation request. Otherwise, GroupBSSID is not valid.
OperatingChannel
The channel information to include in the Operating Channel attribute of the invitation request.
bUseSpecifiedOperatingChannel
If TRUE, the operating channel specified in OperatingChannel is included in the invitation request. Otherwise, the miniport driver can choose its own operating channel.
GroupID
The P2P group identifier.
bLocalGO
The device with the source address in the group owner.
uIEsOffset
The offset, in bytes, of the array of additional information elements (IEs) the Wi-Fi Direct (WFD) port must add to the invitation request packet. This offset is from the start of the buffer that contains this structure.
uIEsLength
The length, in bytes, of the array of IEs provided at uIEsOffset.
