Description

The Add-VMNetworkAdapterAcl cmdlet creates an ACL to apply to the traffic through a virtual machine network adapter. When a virtual network adapter is created there is no ACL on it. Given a list of IP-based ACL entries to be applied to traffic in the same direction, the longest match rule decides which one of the entries is most appropriate to apply to a specific packet.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\>Add-VMNetworkAdapterAcl -VMName Redmond -RemoteIPAddress 10.0.0.0/8 -Direction Both -Action Allow

This example adds an ACL to allow virtual machine Redmond to send to and receive from traffic on IP subnet 10.0.0.8/8.

Example 2

PS C:\>Add-VMNetworkAdapterAcl -VMName Redmond -RemoteIPAddress ANY -Direction Both -Action Deny

This example adds an ACL to deny virtual machine Redmond to send either IPv4 or IPv6 traffic to anywhere and receive such traffic from anywhere.

Example 3

PS C:\>Get-VM Redmond | Add-VMNetworkAdapterAcl -RemoteMacAddress 03-0f-01-0e-aa-b2 -Direction Both -Action Deny

This example gets virtual machine Redmond and adds an ACL to deny it to send any traffic to a device with MAC address 03-0f-01-0e-aa-b2 or to receive any traffic from that device.

Example 4

PS C:\>Get-VMNetworkAdapter -VMName Redmond | Add-VMNetworkAdapterAcl -RemoteIPAddress 192.168.0.0/16 -Direction Outbound -Action Meter

This example gets virtual network adapters from virtual machine Redmond and adds an ACL to meter outgoing traffic sent to IP subnet 192.168.0.0/16.

Parameters

-Action

Specifies the action for the ACL. Allowed values are Allow, Deny, and Meter. A metering ACL must be IP-based, i.e. either -RemoteIPAddress or -LocalIPAddress must be specified.

Type:VMNetworkAdapterAclAction
Accepted values:Allow, Deny, Meter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ComputerName

Specifies one or more Hyper-V hosts on which the ACL is to be created. NetBIOS names, IP addresses, and fully-qualified domain names are allowable. The default is the local computer - use "localhost" or a dot (".") to specify the local computer explicitly.

Type:String[]
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
Aliases:cf
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Direction

Specifies the direction of the network traffic to which the ACL is to apply. Allowed values are Inbound, Outbound, or Both. . If Both is specified, the new ACL entry is added to both the inbound direction and the outbound direction. In the output of Get-VMNetworkAdapterAcl, the ACL entry appears in both the inbound ACL list and the outbound ACL list.

Type:VMNetworkAdapterAclDirection
Accepted values:Inbound, Outbound, Both
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-LocalIPAddress

Specifies the local IP address to which the ACL is to apply. For an inbound packet, this is the destination IP address in the packet header; for an outbound packet, this is the source IP address in the packet header. It can be either IPv4 or IPv6 address. It can be either a host address or a subnet address, e.g. 1.2.3.4, 2001::2008, 192.168.1.0/24, or f001:f002:f003:f004::1/64. The IP address can also be a wildcard, 0.0.0.0/0 for all IPv4 addresses, ::/0 for all IPv6 addresses, or ANY for all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

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

-LocalMacAddress

Specifies the local MAC address to which the ACL is to apply. For an inbound packet, this is the destination MAC address in the packet header; for an outbound packet, this is the source MAC address in the packet header. It can be a host MAC address, e.g. 00-ab-00-11-22-33, or a wildcard, ANY, for all MAC addresses.

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

-ManagementOS

Specifies that the ACL is to be applied in the management (i.e. the parent, or host) operating system.

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

-Passthru

Specifies that an object is to be passed through to the pipeline representing the ACL to be added.

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

-RemoteIPAddress

Specifies the remote IP address to which this ACL is to apply. For an inbound packet, this is the source IP address in the packet header; for an outbound packet, this is the destination IP address in the packet header. It can be either IPv4 or IPv6 address. It can be either a host address or a subnet address, e.g. 1.2.3.4, 2001::2008, 192.168.1.0/24, or f001:f002:f003:f004::1/64.the IP address can also be a wildcard, 0.0.0.0/0 for all IPv4 addresses, ::/0 for all IPv6 addresses, or ANY for all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

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

-RemoteMacAddress

Specifies the remote MAC address to which this ACL is to apply. For an inbound packet, this is the source MAC address in the packet header; for an outbound packet, this is the destination MAC address in the packet header. It can be a host MAC address, e.g. 00-ab-00-11-22-33, or a wildcard, ANY, for all MAC addresses.

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

-VM

Specifies the virtual machine on which the ACL is to apply.

Type:VirtualMachine[]
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-VMName

Specifies the name of the virtual machine on which the ACL is to apply.

Type:String[]
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-VMNetworkAdapter

Specifies the virtual machine network adapter to which the ACL is to apply.

Type:VMNetworkAdapterBase[]
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-VMNetworkAdapterName

Specifies the name of the virtual machine network adapter to which the ACL is to apply.

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

Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
