DOT11_ENCAP_ENTRY (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

This structure defines an encapsulation type to be applied to the payload of an 802.11 packet based on the packet’s IEEE EtherType.

Syntax

typedef struct DOT11_ENCAP_ENTRY {
  USHORT  usEtherType;
  USHORT  usEncapType;
} DOT11_ENCAP_ENTRY, *PDOT11_ENCAP_ENTRY;

Members

• usEtherType
  The value of the IEEE EtherType in big-endian byte order.

  If the usEtherType member is zero, the encapsulation that is specified by the usEncapType member applies to all EtherType values. If the miniport driver sets usEtherType to zero for an entry, it must be the only entry in the EtherType encapsulation list.

• usEncapType
  The type of encapsulation that is performed on the EtherType specified by the usEtherType member. The usEncapType member can have one of the following values:

  DOT11_ENCAP_RFC_1042

  The encapsulation that is defined through IETF RFC 1042.

  DOT11_ENCAP_802_IH

  The encapsulation that is defined through the IEEE 802.1h-1997 standard.

Remarks

The miniport driver returns an encapsulation list when it makes a NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_ASSOCIATION_COMPLETION indication. The encapsulation list specified in the indication applies to the association with an access point (AP) in an infrastructure basic service set (BSS) network.
