Examples
The following PowerShell code sets the DNS suffix search order.
#First store the suffixes to set in a variable
$suffixes = 'microsoft.com', 'google.com', 'yahoo.com'
#Since this is a static method, get a class object and then call the method.
$class = [wmiclass]'Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration'
$class.SetDNSSuffixSearchOrder($suffixes)
