OID_DOT11_AVAILABLE_CHANNEL_LIST

Important  The Native 802.11 Wireless LAN interface is deprecated in Windows 10 and later. Please use the WLAN Device Driver Interface (WDI) instead. For more information about WDI, see WLAN Universal Windows driver model.

 

When queried, the OID_DOT11_AVAILABLE_CHANNEL_LIST OID requests that the miniport driver return the value of the msDot11AvailableChannelList MIB object. The msDot11AvailableChannelList MIB object specifies the available operating frequency channel list of the DSSS, HRDSSS, and ERP PHY configurations that the NIC can operate with.

Note  Support for this OID is mandatory if the NIC reports to the operating system that it supports DSSS, HRDSSS, or ERP PHY configurations.

 

The data type for this OID is the DOT11_AVAILABLE_CHANNEL_LIST structure.

Valid channel numbers are defined in 15.4.6.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-1997. The NIC should return the available frequency channel list based on its own capability and knowledge of the regulatory domain. The NIC must ensure that any entry in this list does not violate the regulatory domain requirements where the NIC is operating.
