Problems with Data Types, Low Severity (18)

	Change	Effect
1	Type of field dwIndex has been changed from DWORD to IF_INDEX.	Replacement of the field data type may indicate a change in the semantic meaning of the field.
2	Type of field dwType has been changed from DWORD to IFTYPE.	Replacement of the field data type may indicate a change in the semantic meaning of the field.

	Change	Effect
1	Type of field dwForwardIfIndex has been changed from DWORD to IF_INDEX.	Replacement of the field data type may indicate a change in the semantic meaning of the field.
2	Field dwForwardProto has been renamed to unnamed1.	Renaming of a field in data type may indicate a change in the semantic meaning of the field.
3	Field dwForwardType has been renamed to unnamed0.	Renaming of a field in data type may indicate a change in the semantic meaning of the field.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_IPADDRROW to _MIB_IPADDRROW_XP.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_IPNETROW to _MIB_IPNETROW_LH.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_TCPROW to _MIB_TCPROW_LH.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_ICMP_EX* to MIB_ICMP_EX_XPSP1*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_IPNETROW* to MIB_IPNETROW_LH*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_IPSTATS* to MIB_IPSTATS_LH*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_TCPROW* to MIB_TCPROW_LH*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _MIB_TCPSTATS* to MIB_TCPSTATS_LH*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Size of this type has been changed from 640 bytes to 648 bytes.	The fields or parameters of such data type may be incorrectly initialized or accessed by old client applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from ip_interface_name_info to ip_interface_name_info_w2ksp1.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from FIXED_INFO* to FIXED_INFO_W2KSP1*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from _IP_PER_ADAPTER_INFO* to IP_PER_ADAPTER_INFO_W2KSP1*.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Base type has been changed from long to long long.	Possible incorrect initialization of parameters by applications.
