NAME New-NetVirtualizationProviderAddress



SYNOPSIS

Assigns a Provider Address to a network interface.





SYNTAX

New-NetVirtualizationProviderAddress [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-MACAddress <String>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]

[-VlanID <UInt16>] -InterfaceIndex <UInt32> -PrefixLength <Byte> -ProviderAddress <String> [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

The New-NetVirtualizationProviderAddress cmdlet assigns a Provider Address to a network interface for use with

Microsoft???? Hyper-V???? Server 2016 Network Virtualization. A Provider Address is an IPv4 or IPv6 address that Network

Virtualization uses for multiple virtual Customer Addresses. For more information, see Network Virtualization

technical details (http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj134174.aspx) on TechNet.



To assign a Provider Address, specify the IP address, an interface, and the IP prefix length for the subnet. You

can also specify a virtual local area network (VLAN) ID.

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.
