OID_DOT11_CURRENT_OPERATION_MODE (Compact 2013)

  • Article

3/26/2014

When set, this OID requests that the miniport driver set its Native 802.11 operation mode to the specified value.

When queried, this OID requests that the miniport driver return its Native 802.11 operation mode.

The data type for this OID is the DOT11_CURRENT_OPERATION_MODE structure.

When OID_DOT11_CURRENT_OPERATION_MODE is set, the miniport driver must do the following:

  • If the miniport driver does not support the specified operation mode, fail the set request by returning NDIS_STATUS_BAD_VERSION from its MiniportOidRequest function.
  • If the 802.11 station is currently performing an explicit scan request operation initiated through a set request of OID_DOT11_SCAN_REQUEST, fail the set request by returning NDIS_STATUS_MEDIA_IN_USE from its MiniportOidRequest function.
  • If the operation mode changes, configure the 802.11 station with the default settings that are defined for the operation mode. The miniport driver must also transition to the initialization (INIT) state for the operation mode.

The operation mode setting must persist through resets that result from a call to the driver’s MiniportResetEx function or a method request of OID_DOT11_RESET_REQUEST.
