Description
The Set-VMNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration cmdlet sets the configuration of an IP address of a virtual network adapter to be used when a virtual machine fails over.
Examples
Example 1
PS C:\> Get-VMNetworkAdapter VM01 NetworkAdapter01 | Set-VMNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration -IPv4Address 10.100.1.100 -IPv4SubnetMask 255.255.255.0
This example configures a failover IPv4 address for virtual network adapter NetworkAdapter01 on virtual machine VM01.
Example 2
PS C:\> Get-VMNetworkAdapter VM01 NetworkAdapter01 | Set-VMNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration -ClearFailoverIPv4Settings
This example clears the current failover IPv4 settings on virtual network adapter NetworkAdapter01 for virtual machine VM01.
Example 3
PS C:\> Get-VMNetworkAdapter VM01 NetworkAdapter01 | Set-VMNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration -Ipv6Address aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa:aaa:aaaa -Ipv6SubnetPrefixLength 12
This example configures an IPv6 address and a prefix length of 12 for a virtual network adapter NetworkAdapter01 for virtual machine VM01.
Example 4
PS C:\> Get-VMNetworkAdapter VM01 NetworkAdapter01 | Set-VMNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration -ClearFailoverIPv6Settings
This example clears the current failover IPv6 settings on a virtual network adapter NetworkAdapter01 for virtual machine VM01.
