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.

 

The DOT11_WFD_DISCOVER_TYPE enumeration indicates the mode of Wi-Fi Direct device discovery.

Syntax

typedef enum _DOT11_WFD_DISCOVER_TYPE {
  dot11_wfd_discover_type_scan_only             = 1,
  dot11_wfd_discover_type_find_only             = 2,
  dot11_wfd_discover_type_auto                  = 3,
  dot11_wfd_discover_type_scan_social_channels  = 4,
  dot11_wfd_discover_type_forced                = 0x80000000
} DOT11_WFD_DISCOVER_TYPE;

Constants

dot11_wfd_discover_type_scan_only Device discovery occurs only during the scan phase. During the scan phase, Wi-Fi Direct devices should scan each social channel at least once every 250ms.
dot11_wfd_discover_type_find_only Device discovery occurs only during the find phase.
dot11_wfd_discover_type_auto Discovery mode is determined by the driver.
dot11_wfd_discover_type_scan_social_channels The WFD device must perform device discovery by scanning only P2P social channels. In this setting, the device should scan each social channel at least once every 250ms.
dot11_wfd_discover_type_forced A flag indicating that a complete device discovery is required. If this flag is not set, a partial discovery can be performed.

Remarks

The dot11_wfd_discover_type_forced flag may be set along with only one of the other discovery modes.
