Why OID_802_3_MULTICAST_LIST failed with status = NDIS_STATUS_MULTICAST_FULL ?

NTDEV

During the Multicast test in the hardware certification process for my network driver i got some error like OID_802_3_MULTICAST_LIST failed with status = NDIS_STATUS_MULTICAST_FULL . But initially i got error like Maximum list size of Multicast addresses is 1 on adapter Virtual Network Driver. So i changed my value

MaximumListSize = 32;

So that error gone but i got new error like above . How i fix this ?

Does your hardware support multicast reception filtering directly? Does it have a multicast address list you program? How big is it?

If you don’t have hardware then what are you trying to do?

Good Luck,

so the max list size is : Maximum Multicast List Size = 32 and i have a multicast list :
