Examples

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
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies one or more names of network adapters to be added to the switch team. Wildcard characters are allowed. Network adapter names are the IfAlias names, such as Ethernet 3. Only wired adapters that are not part of another team, switch team, or Load-Balancing/Fail-Over team can be added.

Type:String

Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Team

Specifies the name of the switch team to which to add a network adapter. The switch team must already exist.

The team name cannot be a NetLbfo team name. Use the NIC Teaming (NetLBFO) Cmdlets in Windows PowerShell cmdlets for a NetLbfo 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.
