Starting in Windows 10, version 1703, the Windows Driver Kit (WDK) includes a class extension module (NetAdapterCx) that enables you to write a KMDF-based networking (NDIS) client driver for Network Interface Cards (NICs). The client driver interacts with NetAdapterCx, which acts as a bridge to traditional NDIS.
For more information, see Network Adapter WDF Class Extension (Cx).
