  __in        DOT11_BSS_TYPE dot11BssType,
  __in        BOOL bSecurityEnabled,
  __reserved  PVOID pReserved,
  __out       PWLAN_BSS_LIST* ppWlanBssList
);

    The client's session handle, obtained by a previous call to the WlanOpenHandle function.
  • pInterfaceGuid
    The GUID of the interface to be queried
  • pDot11Ssid
