DhcpPktSendHook callback function

The DhcpPktSendHook function is called by Microsoft DHCP Server directly before Microsoft DHCP Server sends a response to a client. Registering for notification of DhcpPktSendHook enables third-party developers to alter the response of the Microsoft DHCP Server by manipulation of the packet pointers. The DhcpPktSendHook is implemented by a third-party DLL that registers for notification of significant Microsoft DHCP Server events.

The DhcpPktSendHook function should not block.

Syntax

DWORD CALLBACK DhcpPktSendHook(
  _Inout_ LPBYTE *Packet,
  _Inout_ DWORD  *PacketSize,
  _In_    DWORD  ControlCode,
  _In_    DWORD  IpAddress,
  _In_    LPVOID Reserved,
  _In_    LPVOID PktContext
);

Parameters

  • Packet [in, out]

  • ControlCode [in]
    Control code for the packet being sent. The only acceptable value in this version of the DHCP Server API is DHCP_SEND_PACKET.
