New-NetSwitchTeam

Creates a switch team.

Syntax

New-NetSwitchTeam
   [-Name] <String>
   [-TeamMembers] <String[]>
   [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
   [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
   [-AsJob]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The New-NetSwitchTeam cmdlet creates a switch team. A switch team must have a name for the team and must be created with one or more members, or network adapters.

The network switch team is a team that is controlled by a Hyper-V extensible switch forwarding extension. No other cmdlets can be used to manage a switch team and the Network Switch Team Cmdlets in Windows PowerShell must not be used to manage standard, or non-switch, network adapter teams.

Examples

Example 1: Create a team

PS C:\>New-NetSwitchTeam -Name "SwitchTeam01" -TeamMembers "Ethernet 2","Ethernet 3"

This command creates a team named SwitchTeam01 that has two network adapter members.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
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-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False

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

-TeamMembers

Specifies one or more network adapters to add as members of the team. A new team must have at least one member upon creation. The network adapters must already exist and not be part of another team.

Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
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.
