Re: Mux driver?

Umm, sorry Tom, I ran into the same belief when I started to implement
"Load Balancing and Failover" years ago.

IIRC, the "Load Balancing and Failover" discussed in the DDK docs has
nothing to do with MUX intermediate drivers. See the DDK docs for
details.

I guess the OP rather wants to implement what is described in the
standard IEEE 802.3ad "Link Aggregation" (download the complete 802.3
standard for free here: http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/). For
this one actually needs to implement a MUX IM.

Note, however, that neither implementing a MUX IM nor implementing Link
Aggregation is an easy task. Actually, this will take several man
months to implement - assumed one already has an advanced understanding
of NDIS and IMs.

I got Mux driver from ddk, how do I modified this mux driver to N-1 where
only one virtual miniport is presented for 2 physical adapters? I'm new
to
driver developer and I really need help.
