The following table shows the NDIS data types with a description of the purpose of each.
| Programming element | Description |
|---|---|
| NDIS_802_11_ANTENNA | This data type is used to set and return the 802_11 antenna selected for receiving on the radio. |
| NDIS_802_11_FRAGMENTATION_THRESHOLD | This data type provides the fragmentation threshold at which a wireless LAN will fragment packets. |
| NDIS_802_11_KEY_INDEX | This data type provides an index to the Wired Equivalent Protocol (WEP) encryption key. |
| NDIS_802_11_MAC_ADDRESS | This data type holds the MAC address of the associated access point. The setting is useful when doing a site survey. |

| NDIS_802_11_TX_POWER_LEVEL | This data type holds the current transmit power level. |
| NDIS_BUFFER | This data type is used as the standard buffer type for the NDIS API. |
| NDIS_ERROR_CODE | This data type is used to specify NDIS_STATUS_XXX codes that describe errors. |
| NDIS_HANDLE | This data type is used as the generic handle type in NDIS function calls. |
| NDIS_INTERRUPT_MODE | This data type is used to specify the interrupt mode. |
| NDIS_OID | This data type is used to identify an NDIS object. |
| NDIS_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS | This data type is equivalent to the system-defined LARGE_INTEGER type. |
| NDIS_PROC | This data type is used to specify the entry point of a caller-supplied function that processes a work item when it is dequeued. |
