Hi!
I would like to know if it is possible to create binding between NDIS
protocol driver and TCP/IP stack driver (tcpip.sys).

Can I make the tcpip driver encapsulate my messages within IP packets, so
that I did not have to take care of adding all the other needed headers (IP,
ETH)?

Thanks for any help!

This is not NDIS. This is TDI (pre-Vista) or WSK (Vista+).

He might be talking about a filter driver since he is talking about
using tcp. But otherwise yes, protocol drivers are not NDIS. NDIS is
device oriented.

There is a Protocol NDIS driver and a lower edge of tcpip stack is a
Protocol NDIS driver.
