WZC doesn't know our driver is WPA capable...How to tell WZC?

[PingPong]

Hi,

I am trying to make our driver to work with WZC with WPA functionality. I
already made all WPA related OIDs
work and able to use meetinghouse Aegis client to do WPA and WPA PSK and
surf.
Right now, when I plug in our card and load the driver, the Windows Zero
Configuration doesn't know our card can do
WPA OIDs and TKIP and AES encryptions.
How do I tell WZC it's a WPA capable driver ? Through the OIDs or INF file
or Registery ?

Please advise !

You need to pass the tests that WZC uses to determine if your driver
supports WPA. Look at the 802.11 driver guidelines for a description of
these tests. You can get the guidelines doc at:

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/network/802x/80211_netadapt.mspx

Hi,
Thank you for the infomation.
I went through the tests that guidelines described and right now our driver
had the same OID responses as guideline
says.
But one weird thing is WZC didn't sent me the Query
OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION,
It basically skipped this query OID.
I used DLink card as the reference. WZC sent the same OID sequence to DLink
as it sent to our driver, except WZC sent OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION
to DLink and skipped it to our driver.
SO, DLink card is "WPA capable", and our's not.

Please Help, I know I am very close to pass tests as "WPA capable".
Why WZC doesn't sent OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION to our driver ?
(I did implement this OID: ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION .)
Any ideas ?

Are you exporting OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION in your list of
supported OIDs when queried by OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_LIST?

 

[PingPong]

Thanks agian,
Yes, I do exporting OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION when queried by
OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_LIST.

Anything I possibly missed ?

 

[Gramps]

Are you getting a set of OID_802_11_ADD_KEY? If so, are you failing
the set if the key index parameter is 0xc0000001 and returning
NDIS_STATUS_INVALID_DATA?

For that matter, can you list the OIDs that you are getting (based on the
adapter guidelines) and what your driver returns for data?

This list is almost identical to what WZC send to DLink card, except some

However DLink card got extra query OID association_information which we
didn't after set OID add_key .

Anything wrong in the list ? DLink has the same list and return values and
passes tests. The only missing OID for us is query association_information,
if WZC send us this OID, then I can debug the next. If they don't, something
must be wrong.

Thanks in advance.

The bad news is that I don't see anything that looks incorrect and I'm not
sure if the comments I've given you will have any impact.

You may want to plumb OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION to your driver

Hi,
I tried those OIDs setting you commented. I still got the same list without
the OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION.

I am sure I returned OID_GEN_MAC_OPTIONS with value 0xD, I don't know where
0x80 came from, but DLink card has the same value 0x8D as well.

Anything else? looks like it's a tough one to find out, I am running out of
ideas.

I am sure I returned OID_GEN_MAC_OPTIONS with value 0xD, I don't know where

NDIS will insert the 0x80 after the miniport is queried with
OID_GEN_MAC_OPTIONS.

Anything else? looks like it's a tough one to find out, I am running out of

The only thing I still suspect is whether OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION
is really being advertised in the OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_LIST query. Have you
tried querying your driver with OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION through
OidScope?

Also, let's see if we can solve this together outside of the news group.
