Detailed Description

The Set-NetAdapterLso cmdlet manages the large send offload property which can improve send side performance by having the network adapter distribute a large send request into smaller sizes that can be sent out by the network adapter. Without this setting Windows Server® 2012 and later would have to perform this work. The offload reduces the load on the processor, so that the processor can to do more application level work. If only setting the enabled state of LSO, then use the Enable-NetAdapterLso or Disable-NetAdapterLso cmdlets.

-ThrottleLimit<Int32>

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.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

  • Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/StandardCimv2/MSFT_NetAdapter LsoSettingData[]

    The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

  • Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/StandardCimv2/MSFT_NetAdapter LsoSettingData

    The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

This example enables LSO for IPv4 and disables LSO for IPv6 on the network adapter named MyAdapter.

PS C:\> Set-NetAdapterLso –Name MyAdapter -IPv4Enabled $True -IPv6Enabled $False
