use toaster sample to simulate USB device enumeration

I am studying the toaster on bus behavior. Now I want to know can I use this
sample to simulate USB device plugin/unplug.
1. can I use 'enum' console application to send the IOCTL to tell the
busenum driver that a new USB device is plugged in? Do I need to modify the
code of it?
2. what do I need to modify the busenum driver code to tell PnP manager that
a USB device is attached?

Any comment is appreaciated.

 

Perhaps the best thing for simulation USB devices is... the framework
for simulation of USB devices. Included in the latest WDK.

can the the framework for simulation of USB devices be used on Win2000 and
WinXP?

 

On win2000, definitely not. On XP SP2+ may be.
It depends on whether you simulate the device-side firmware,
or something that runs on the host OS side.

maybe IOCTL_INTERNAL_USB_CYCLE_PORT does what you want ( works on 2K too )?
