This function has no parameters.

Remarks
Interface indices appear in the order specified in the Adapters and Bindings dialog box in the Advanced Settings property sheet. This ordering is used as a tie breaker controlling the sequence in which interfaces are used on multihomed systems for situations including route selection, DNS name resolution, and other network related operations.
This function should not be called directly. Instead, use the IP_ADAPTER_INFO structure returned in a GetAdaptersInfo function call.
Note The caller is responsible for calling the LocalFree function to free the array returned by GetAdapterOrderMap.
