Description

The Set-NetQosTrafficClass cmdlet modifies the settings of a traffic class, such as the mapping between 802.1p priority and traffic class, the transmission algorithm to be used, and the bandwidth allocation to the traffic class. If Windows Server® 2012 or later is set to be not willing to accept configurations from a remote device, then Windows Server 2012 or later will send the updated settings to data center bridging (DCB)-capable network adapters in the computer.

For more information on remote device configurations, see the Set-NetQosDcbxSetting cmdlet.

For more information on traffic class, see the New-NetQosTrafficClass cmdlet.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\> Set-NetQosTrafficClass -Name SMB -BandwidthPercentage 50

This example changes the bandwidth allocation to traffic class named SMB to 50 percent.

EXAMPLE 2

PS C:\> Get-NetQosTrafficClass -Name SMB | Set-NetQosTrafficClass -Priority 3,4

This example gets the settings of the traffic class named SMB and changes the priority mapping setting so that traffic tagged with 3 or 4 are mapped to the traffic class named SMB.

Parameters

-Algorithm

Specifies the transmission selection algorithm to assign to the traffic class, such as enhanced transmission selection (ETS).

Type:Algorithm
Aliases:Tsa
Position:Named
Default value:Ets
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-AsJob

ps_cimcommon_asjob

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-BandwidthPercentage

Specifies the percent of total bandwidth to assign to the traffic class.

Type:Byte
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-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-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227967 or Get-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227966 cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject

Specified the object which will be modified by this cmdlet. The object must be piped to the cmdlet.

Type:CimInstance[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies the name of the traffic class.

Type:String[]
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Priority

Specifies the IEEE 802.1p priority values.

Type:Byte[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

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.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Inputs

CimInstance[]

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_NetQosTrafficClassSettingData object contains a network traffic class.

Outputs

CimInstance

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_NetQosTrafficClassSettingData object contains a network traffic class. Only when the PassThru parameter is specified will the cmdlet return the MSFT_NetQosTrafficClassSettingData object.
