  41 Overall architecture of the ifenum and ipstats functions.
  42
  43 Right now, I rely heavily on a couple of enumeration functions.
  44 What I need to do is consolidate them and reduce traffic on the ioctl.
  45
  46 There are two things I need to do:
  47
  48 1. Lookup an interface by index (or name)
  49 2. Get the IP info
  50
  51 I have too many functions that loop over various things.
  52
  53 What I need are the get** functions from ipstats (which I think are ok)
  54 And then to change the detritus in ifenum to be all based on
  55 getInterfaceIndexTable and getInterfaceMibByIndex, getInterfaceMibByName
  56
  57 Implementing name functions:
  58
  59 Ok here's what i can synthesize from unclegarlic and vizzini:
  60
  61 the IP_ADAPTER_INFO struct should contain the guid part of the registry key
  62 name that holds the adapter
  63
  64 the snmp-style info functions should return a nice name, which is also from
  65 the registry.
  66
  67 In no case is the adapter OID for name used.  According to vizzini, this
  68 OID is never used and probably almost never implemented.
  69
  70 This is different from the wine case because there are two different names
  71 returned from the underlying layer.
