NAME Get-SmbMultichannelConnection



SYNOPSIS

Retrieves the SMB connections made between the SMB client network interfaces and the SMB server network interfaces.





SYNTAX

Get-SmbMultichannelConnection [[-ServerName] <String[]>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-IncludeNotSelected] [-SmbInstance {Default | CSV}]

[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

The Get-SmbMultichannelConnection cmdlet retrieves the Server Message Block (SMB) connections made between the SMB client network interfaces and the SMB

server network interfaces. This cmdlet provides information about how the SMB multi-channel pairs the client and the server network interfaces and which

pairs are selected to use for the SMB connections.





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



-IncludeNotSelected [<SwitchParameter>]

Indicates the client and server network interface combinations which are not selected are used by SMB are also enumerated.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ServerName [<String[]>]

Specifies that the multi-channel connections made to the given server are enumerated.



Required? false

Position? 2

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-SmbInstance [<Microsoft.PowerShell.Cmdletization.GeneratedTypes.SmbShare.SmbInstance>]

Specifies the input to this cmdlet. You can use this parameter, or you can pipe the input to this cmdlet.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? true(ByPropertyName)

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



<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,

ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,

OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see

INPUTS

None









OUTPUTS

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root/Microsoft/Windows/SMB/MSFT_SmbMultiChannelConnection



The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The

path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

The MSFT_SmbMultiChannelConnection object represents a pair of a client and a server network interface.
