Re: Strange issue with NDISPROT xmit and the network performance counter



Hi,

One more detail:
It seems that the packet counters in the NIC are different from the counters in the Task manager.
While the NIC's 'Status' window shows real packet counts, the Network tab from the Task Manager counts only IP packets and completely ignores my custom Ethernet frames (with exception for receive byte counts).

Has anybody seen the issue with a custom protocol driver?

I have tried several NICs of different vendors and 3 test machines - the results are the same.
Only 'Bytes received' is updated when my NDIS protocol sends/receives packets.
'Bytes sent', 'Unicasts Sent' and 'Unicast Received' are not changed at all.

So it seems this is some issue related to the NDIS protocol driver...

Sounds like a problem in the network adapter's driver. Try some other
network adapter or get an updated driver for your current adapter.

Stephan,

Thank you for your help.

The 'Bytes sent' counter does not updated at all.
While 'Bytes received' seems to be OK.

Also numbers of sent and received packets in the Network tab seem not to
count my RAW Ethernet traffic - only TCP/IP.

I tested it in Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 Server SP1 x86.
