The device loader and NDIS 3 wrapper use this information to check if the real-mode NDIS 2 driver is in memory and to load the appropriate mapper if necessary.
Driver Sub Key | Value Name | Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
NDIS/NDIS2 | DriverName | driver name | The NDIS 2 driver's base DriverName. |
NDIS/NDIS2 | AdapterName | adapter name | The NDIS 2 actual adapter name and Protocol.ini section name. The AdapterName changes for multiple instances of the adapter. |
NDIS/NDIS2 | FileName | driver file name | The name of the NDIS 2 driver. |
Note: NETDI automatically copies the file specified in FileName, therefore it is not necessary to explicitly copy the file in a CopyFiles section in the INF file. You only need a CopyFiles section for NDIS2 if you have additional support files for your driver.
