NAME Add-NetEventNetworkAdapter



SYNOPSIS

Adds a network adapter as a filter on a provider.





SYNTAX

Add-NetEventNetworkAdapter [-Name] <String> [[-PromiscuousMode] <System.Boolean>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-InformationAction

{SilentlyContinue | Stop | Continue | Inquire | Ignore | Suspend}] [-InformationVariable <System.String>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]

[<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

The Add-NetEventNetworkAdapter cmdlet adds a network adapter as a filter on a Remote Packet Capture provider. The protocol stack uses multiple

layers to transmit, receive, and process network traffic, or packets. The provider logs network traffic as Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) events.



Use this cmdlet multiple times to add several adapters. To see which adapters currently belong to a provider, use the Get-NetEventNetworkAdapter

cmdlet.



When you add an adapter to provider in a session that is currently running, stop and start the session for your changes to take effect. Use the

Stop-NetEventSession cmdlet to stop a session and the Start-NetEventSession cmdlet to restart it.





PARAMETERS

-CimSession [<CimSession[]>]

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession

or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-InformationAction [<System.Management.Automation.ActionPreference>]

Specifies how this cmdlet responds to an information event. The acceptable values for this parameter are:



-- SilentlyContinue

-- Stop

-- Continue

-- Inquire

-- Ignore

-- Suspend



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-InformationVariable [<System.String>]

Specifies a variable in which to store an information event message.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-Name <String>

Specifies the name of a network adapter to add.



Required? true

Position? 1

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-PromiscuousMode [<System.Boolean>]

Specifies whether the network adapter uses promiscuous mode.



Required? false

Position? 2

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ThrottleLimit [<Int32>]

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0

is entered, then Windows PowerShell?????? calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running

on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false

INPUTS









OUTPUTS









Example 1: Add a network adapter



PS C:\\>New-NetEventSession -Name "Session38"

PS C:\\> Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider -SessionName "Session38"

PS C:\\> Add-NetEventNetworkAdapter -Name "Ethernet01"



This example creates a network event session, adds a provider, and then adds a network adapter.



The first command uses the New-NetEventSession cmdlet to create a network event session named Session38.



The second command adds a provider to the session named Session38 by using the Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider cmdlet. A session must have a

provider in order to capture packets.



The third command adds a network adapter. After you create and configure the session, use the Start-NetEventSession cmdlet to start capturing

packets.
