Summary of New Socket Ioctl Opcodes

The new socket ioctl opcodes for Windows Sockets 2 are summarized in the following table. See WSAIoctl for detailed information on these opcodes. The WSAIoctl function also supports all the ioctl opcodes specified in ioctlsocket. Theother new protocol-specific ioctl opcodes can be found in the Protocol-specific Annex (a separate document included with the Win32 SDK).
