INPUTS

CimInstance[]



You can pipe an array of CimInstance objects that correspond to a network switch feature to this cmdlet.





OUTPUTS

None



This cmdlet does not generate any output.





Example 1: Enable a feature by using its name



PS C:\\>$Session = New-CimSession -ComputerName "NetworkSwitch08"

PS C:\\> Enable-NetworkSwitchFeature -CimSession $Session -Name "SSH"



The first command creates a CimSession for a network switch, and then stores it in the $Session variable. For more information about CimSession

objects, type Get-Help New-CimSession.



The second command enables the feature named SSH for the switch NetworkSwitch08 by using the $Session object.





Example 2: Enable a feature by using its instance ID



PS C:\\>Enable-NetworkSwitchFeature -CimSession $Session -InstanceID "Contoso:Feature:2"



This command enables a feature by using the instance ID to identify it. The command includes a CimSession, similar to the first example.
