ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid function

The ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid function converts a globally unique identifier (GUID) for a network interface to the locally unique identifier (LUID) for the interface.

Note

The ConvertInterfaceXxx API family enumerates identifiers over all interfaces bound to TCP/IP, which may include virtual miniports, lightweight filters, tunnel adapters, and physical interfaces.

Syntax

NETIOAPI_API ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid(
  _In_  const GUID      *InterfaceGuid,
  _Out_       PNET_LUID InterfaceLuid
);

Parameters

  • InterfaceGuid [in]
    A pointer to a GUID for the network interface.

  • InterfaceLuid [out]
    A pointer to the NET_LUID union for the network interface.

Return value

ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the function succeeds. If the function fails, the InterfaceLuid parameter is set to NULL, and ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid returns the following error code:

Return code Description
STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER

One of the parameters was invalid. ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid returns this error if either InterfaceAlias or InterfaceLuid is NULL, or if InterfaceGuid is invalid.

Remarks

The ConvertInterfaceGuidToLuid function is protocol-independent and works with network interfaces for both the IPv6 and IPv4 protocols.
