Resets the network adapter and allocates the transmit and receive buffers.
Resets the network adapter and re-initializes it with the parameters
provided in the previous call to Initialize.
Resets the network adapter and leaves it in a state that is safe for another
driver to initialize. The memory buffers assigned in the
call are released. After this call, only the

Enables and disables the receive filters for the network interface and, if
supported, manages the filtered multicast HW MAC (Hardware Media
Access Control) address list.
Modifies or resets the current station address, if supported.
Collects statistics from the network interface and allows the statistics to
be reset.
Maps a multicast IP address to a multicast HW MAC address.
Reads and writes the contents of the NVRAM devices attached to the
network interface.
Reads the current interrupt status and the list of recycled transmit buffers
from the network interface.
Places a packet in the transmit queue.
Retrieves a packet from the receive queue, along with the status flags
that describe the packet type.
