How to Demultiplex Management Frames

NetDev_MgmtDemux() is called by μC/TCP-IP’s Receive task after the device’s receive function has returned a management frame. NetDev_MgmtDemux() requires that the device driver analyses management frames received and it must performs all necessary operations. It performs the following actions:

...

1. Determine if the management frame is a response of a previous management command sent or if it is a management frame which require the driver to update driver’s state.

...

1. If the management frame is a response, the device’s Wireless Manager must be signaled using the function pointer NetWiFiMgr_Signal(). No other steps are required in that case.

...

1. If the management frame is a state update, the driver should update device’s data or interface’s link state or perform transmit complete operations.

...

1. NetDev_MgmtDemux() sets p_err to NET_DEV_ERR_NONE and return from the demultiplex function.
