Supported Ethernet NICs for Network Kernel Debugging in Windows 8

Artikel
12/15/2021

You can do kernel debugging over an Ethernet network cable when the target computer is running Windows 8. The target computer must have a supported network interface card (NIC) or network adapter.

During kernel debugging, the computer that runs the debugger is called the host computer, and the computer being debugged is called the target computer. For more information, see Setting Up KDNET Network Kernel Debugging Automatically.

To do kernel debugging over a network cable, the target computer must have a supported network adapter. When the target computer is running Windows 8, the network adapters listed here are supported for kernel debugging.

Note For a list of network adapters supported by Windows 8.1 for kernel debugging, see Supported Ethernet NICs for Network Kernel Debugging in Windows 8.1.

System Requirements

Kernel debugging through Ethernet NICs requires certain low-level platform support. Windows requires that these NICs be attached via PCI/PCIe for this debugging solution. In most cases, simply plugging in one of these supported NICs will allow a robust kernel debugging experience. However, there may be cases where BIOS configuration details hinder the Windows debug path. The following set of platform requirements should be considered:

System firmware should discover and configure the NIC device such that its resources do not conflict with any other devices that have been BIOS-configured.
System firmware should place the NIC’s resources under address windows that are not marked prefetchable.

Finding the vendor ID and device ID

First find the vendor ID and device ID of the network adapter on your target computer.

On the target computer, open Device Manager (enter devmgmt in a Command Prompt window).
In Device Manager, locate the network adapter that you want to use for debugging.
Right click the network adapter node, and choose Properties.
In the Details tab, under Property, select Hardware Ids.

The vendor and device IDs are shown as VEN_VendorID and DEV_DeviceID. For example, if you see PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_104B, the vendor ID is 8086, and the device ID is 104B.
