OID_WW_GEN_EXTERNAL_POWER

The OID_WW_GEN_EXTERNAL_POWER OID requests the miniport driver to return information about any external power source connected to the NIC as follows:

Value Meaning

0

No external power source is connected.

1

External power is connected.

-1

Unknown.

 

If any bound protocol has enabled indications with OID_WW_GEN_INDICATION_REQUEST, the miniport driver must call NdisMIndicateStatus to notify such protocol(s) if the external power connection state changes. It can ignore the TriggerValue member that was specified in the OID_WW_GEN_INDICATION_REQUEST.

Sets are irrelevant for this OID.

Note   This OID is not available for use beginning with Windows Vista.
