OID_802_5_CURRENT_FUNCTIONAL (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This object specifies the functional address that is enabled on the network adapter for packet reception.

When the underlying driver initializes its network adapter, it resets the functional address to zero (0). NDIS also initializes the packet filter so that a protocol does not receive functional address packets. To receive a functional address packet, a bound protocol must subsequently set the packet filter to include the NDIS_PACKET_TYPE_FUNCTIONAL flag. The protocol can disable packet reception at any time by canceling this flag. The order in which the protocol enables reception for functional address packets is irrelevant.
