Tdp Driver

Microsoft Windows-based operating systems support several types of kernel-mode network drivers. The Network section of the Windows Driver Kit (WDK) documentation describes how to write these network drivers. This topic briefly describes the supported types of network drivers and explains which sections of the Network section you should read before writing each type of network driver.

You can help protect yourself from scammers by verifying that the contact is a Microsoft Agent or Microsoft Employee and that the phone number is an official Microsoft global customer service number.

This network driver design guide documents the following Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) interfaces:

• NDIS 6.40, which is supported on Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.30 includes support for Network Direct Kernel Provider Interface (NDKPI) 1.12.

  For more information about NDIS 6.30, see Introduction to NDIS 6.40.

• NDIS 6.30, which is supported on Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.30 includes support for single root/I/O virtualization (SR-IOV), Hyper-V extensible switch, Network Direct Kernel Provider Interface (NDKPI) 1.1, and other services.

  For more information about NDIS 6.30, see Introduction to NDIS 6.30.

• NDIS 6.20, which is supported on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.20 includes support for Virtual Machine Queue (VMQ), receive side throttle, and other services.

  For more information about NDIS 6.20, see Introduction to NDIS 6.20.

• NDIS 6.1, which is supported on Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1), Windows Server 2008, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.1 includes support for header-data split, direct OID requests, and other services.

  For more information about NDIS 6.1, see Introduction to NDIS 6.1.

• NDIS 6.0, which is supported on Windows Vista and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.0 includes support for filter drivers and many additional services that were not provided by earlier NDIS versions. NDIS 6.0 includes major updates to driver initialization and network data management including required support for driver reconfiguration at runtime and the NET_BUFFER architecture for handling network packet data. For more information about supporting runtime reconfiguration, see Driver Stack Management. For more information about how to handle network packet data in NDIS 6.0 see NET_BUFFER Architecture.

  For more information about NDIS 6.0, see Introduction to NDIS 6.0.

Windows Vista and later operating system versions support the following types of kernel-mode NDIS-based network drivers:

Miniport Drivers
A miniport driver manages miniport adapters and provides an interface to the adapters for higher-level drivers. A miniport adapter is a conceptual entity that can represent either a physical device or a virtual device. For example, a miniport adapter can represent a network interface card (NIC) or a virtual device that is associated with an intermediate driver.

There are many variations of miniport drivers, such as a connection-oriented miniport call manager (MCM), a Windows Driver Model (WDM) miniport driver, and the upper edge of an intermediate driver. Tpmx driver download for windows 10 windows 10.

Protocol Drivers
A protocol driver provides high-level services in a driver stack. A protocol driver binds to underlying miniport adapters. An upper-level protocol driver implements an interface, possibly an application-specific interface, at its upper edge to provide services to users of the network. At its lower edge, a protocol driver provides a protocol interface to pass network data to and receive incoming data from the next-lower driver.

Tnp Drivers

There are many variations of protocol drivers, such as a connection-oriented call manager (MCM), a connection-oriented client, and the lower edge of an intermediate driver.

Filter Drivers
A filter driver filters information on the interface between protocol drivers and miniport drivers. Filter modules are attached in the binding between the protocol driver and the miniport adapter and are generally transparent to the other drivers. Filter drivers can implement modifying or monitoring filters. For example, a filter driver can enhance the services that the underlying miniport adapter provides or simply collect statistics.

Intermediate Drivers
An intermediate driver interfaces between upper-level protocol drivers and miniport drivers. Intermediate drivers provide a miniport driver interface at their upper-edge to bind to overlying protocol drivers. Intermediate drivers provide a protocol driver interface at their lower edge to bind to underlying miniport adapters. Intermediate drivers are typically used to implement n to m multiplexer services. For example, an intermediate driver can implement load balance and failover solutions.

Intermediate drivers can also manage hardware when they are configured as a miniport-intermediate driver.

The following additional driver models are available to use particular hardware technologies and architectures.

Plug and Play provides:

• Automatic and dynamic recognition of installed hardware

• Hardware resource allocation (and reallocation)

• Loading of appropriate drivers

• An interface for drivers to interact with the PnP system

• Mechanisms for drivers and applications to learn of changes in the hardware environment

To support PnP, a driver must follow these guidelines:

• It must contain a DispatchPnP routine.

  This dispatch routine must handle IRP_MJ_PNP requests and associated minor function codes. For more information, see DispatchPnP Routines.

• It must not search for hardware.

  The PnP manager is responsible for determining the presence of hardware devices. When the PnP manager detects a device, it notifies the driver by calling its AddDevice routine. Hardware can be detected when the system is booted, or any time that a user adds a device to, or removes one from, a running system.

• It must not allocate hardware resources.

  A PnP driver must provide the PnP manager with lists of resources that a device can potentially use. The PnP manager is responsible for assigning resources to each device, and notifying the driver of each device's assignments when it sends an IRP_MN_START_DEVICE request. The driver must thus be capable of working with various configurations of hardware resources.

  

Some drivers are insulated from the details of the PnP and power management by system-supplied port or class drivers. For example, a SCSI port driver insulates a SCSI miniport driver from many of the details of the power and PnP systems, so a SCSI miniport driver does not need to handle power and PnP IRPs directly. For such drivers, see the driver-specific documentation for details of the required PnP support.
