CimInstance[]



This cmdlet returns an array of CimInstance objects that represent network switch features.





Example 1: Get all features



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

PS C:\\> Get-NetworkSwitchFeature -CimSession $Session

Name IsEnabled InstanceID PSComputerName

---- --------- ---------- --------------

SSH True Contoso:Feature:2 10.19.26.49

Tacacs True Contoso:Feature:3 10.19.26.49

BGP False Contoso:Feature:4 10.19.26.49

VLAN True Contoso:Feature:5 10.19.26.49

LACP True Contoso:Feature:6 10.19.26.49

DHCP False Contoso:Feature:7 10.19.26.49

LLDP True Contoso:Feature:8 10.19.26.49



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 gets the features for the switch NetworkSwitch08 by using the $Session object. This example shows representative results.





Example 2: Get all enabled features



PS C:\\>Get-NetworkSwitchFeature -CimSession $Session -Enabled



This command gets all the enabled features on a network switch. The command includes a CimSession, similar to the first example.





Example 3: Get all disabled features



PS C:\\>Get-NetworkSwitchFeature -CimSession $Session -Disabled



This command gets all the disabled features on a network switch. The command includes a CimSession, similar to the first example.





Example 4: Get features by using a name



PS C:\\>Get-NetworkSwitchFeature -CimSession $Session -FeatureName "*BGP*"



This command gets all features that contain the string BGP on a network switch. The command includes a CimSession, similar to the first example.
