DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

This structure specifies the parameters for an association operation that is performed by the 802.11 station with either an access point (AP) or peer station.

Syntax

typedef struct DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS {
  NDIS_OBJECT_HEADER  Header;
  DOT11_MAC_ADDRESS  MacAddr;
  DOT11_SSID  SSID;
  ULONG  uIHVDataOffset;
  ULONG  uIHVDataSize;
} DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS, *PDOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS;

Members

• Header
  The type, revision, and size of the DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS structure. This member is formatted as an NDIS_OBJECT_HEADER structure.

  The miniport driver must set the members of Header to the following values:

  Type	This member must be set to NDIS_OBJECT_TYPE_DEFAULT
  Revision	DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS_REVISION_1
  Size	This member must be set to sizeof(DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START_PARAMETERS)

• MacAddr
  The media access control (MAC) address of the AP or peer station with which the 802.11 station tried to associate

• SSID
  The service set identifier (SSID) with which the 802.11 station is trying to associate.

  If the dot11DesiredBSSType MIB object is set to dot11_BSS_type_independent, the SSID member must contain the same value that the AdhocSSID member used in the structures for previous NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_CONNECTION_START and NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_ROAMING_START indications.

• uIHVDataOffset
  The offset of a block of data in a proprietary format that is defined by the IHV. The IHV can use this data block for any purpose that is related to the NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START indication.

  This offset is relative to the start of the buffer, which contains the DOT11_ASSOCIATION_ START_PARAMETERS structure.

  If the miniport driver is not returning IHV data in the NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START indication, it must set uIHVDataOffset to zero.

• uIHVDataSize
  The length of the block of data that is used by the IHV for the NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_ASSOCIATION_START indication. If the miniport driver is not returning IHV data in this indication, it must set uIHVDataSize to zero.
