Can anyone explain why Java GetNetworkInterfaces returns so many interfaces on Windows 7

I have been using NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces() to query the Network Interfaces on my machine. Essentially I am trying to find Network Interface Cards. These are usually called something like eth0, eth1 etc..

Its been working great on win xp and even vista with a litle filtering.

I just noticed in certain configurations of windows 7 I get a large number of listed network adapters. Way more than on xp and vista. I have only one card configured but seem to get three different network interfaces

  • Intel(R) 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection
  • Intel(R) 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection-QoS Packet Scheduler-0000
  • Intel(R) 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection-WFP LightWeight Filter-0000

Why 3 different points for essentially the same thing.

I also have six entries for something called WAN MINIPORT. (See below for output)

I can filter out these but of course there is a performance cost in going through so much crap. Does anyone know why these entries are created and how to minimise them ?

As an example on my system I wrote code like this

import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.NetworkInterface;
import java.net.SocketException;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Enumeration;

import static java.lang.System.out;


public class ListNetsEx {

    /**
     * @param args
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Enumeration<NetworkInterface> nets;
        try {
            nets = NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces();
            for (NetworkInterface netint : Collections.list(nets))
                displayInterfaceInformation(netint);
        } catch (SocketException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    }

    private static void displayInterfaceInformation(NetworkInterface netint) throws SocketException {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        out.printf("Display name: %s\n", netint.getDisplayName());
        out.printf("Name: %s\n", netint.getName());
        Enumeration<InetAddress> inetAddresses = netint.getInetAddresses();

        for (InetAddress inetAddress : Collections.list(inetAddresses)) {
            out.printf("InetAddress: %s\n", inetAddress);
        }

        out.printf("Up? %s\n", netint.isUp());
        out.printf("Loopback? %s\n", netint.isLoopback());
        out.printf("PointToPoint? %s\n", netint.isPointToPoint());
        out.printf("Supports multicast? %s\n", netint.supportsMulticast());
        out.printf("Virtual? %s\n", netint.isVirtual());
        out.printf("Hardware address: %s\n",
                    Arrays.toString(netint.getHardwareAddress()));
        out.printf("MTU: %s\n", netint.getMTU());

        out.printf("\n");

    }

}

Windows defines many interfaces for internal use. Java just returns what the OS tell gives it, none of these are added by Java.

You should be able to find entries for all these devices in the Windows Registry.
