STATUS_NDIS_NOT_SUPPORTED
The request is known, but unsupported by this adapter path
STATUS_NDIS_NOT_SUPPORTED is a feature-compatibility result. It does not necessarily say the OID is malformed; it says that the selected target does not implement the request in the applicable media, driver role, hardware capability set, or current contract.
Treat this as a capability result. The right next step is to establish what the adapter or filter advertises and whether a different interface or feature path is appropriate, not to retry the same request with arbitrary data.
Evidence that narrows it
- Record the OID or request, adapter role, media type, advertised capabilities, and NDIS or structure revision.
- Distinguish unsupported functionality from
STATUS_NDIS_INVALID_OID, which identifies an unrecognized OID, and from invalid data for a recognized feature. - Gate optional features during capability discovery and preserve the status in telemetry instead of silently treating it as success.
