Get-NetAdapterChecksumOffload

Gets the various checksum offload settings from network adapters that support these checksum offloads.

Syntax

ByName (Default)

Get-NetAdapterChecksumOffload
    [[-Name] <String[]>]
    [-IncludeHidden]
    [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
    [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
    [-AsJob]
    [<CommonParameters>]

ByInstanceID

Get-NetAdapterChecksumOffload
    -InterfaceDescription <String[]>
    [-IncludeHidden]
    [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
    [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
    [-AsJob]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-NetAdapterChecksumOffload cmdlet gets the various checksum offload settings. Physical network adapters have various checksum offloads in which the checksum calculations occur in the network adapter and not in the main processor. This reduces processor utilization and can increase network throughput. This cmdlet gets the various checksum offload settings, including IPv4, TCPv4, TCPv6, UDPv4, and UDPv6.

Examples

Example 1: Get the checksum offload properties of the specified network adapter

PS C:\> Get-NetAdapterChecksumOffload -Name "MyAdapter"

This command gets the state of checksum offload properties of the network adapter named MyAdapter.

Example 2: Get the checksum offload properties of the specified network adapter and display them

PS C:\> $NetworkAdapterC01 = Get-NetAdapterChecksumOffload -Name "MyAdapter"
PS C:\> $NetworkAdapterC01.ChecksumOffloadHardwareCapabilities

The first command gets the state of checksum offload properties from the network adapter named MyAdapter and stores the result in the variable named $NetworkAdapterC01.

The second command displays the checksum offload hardware capabilities of the network adapter stored in the $NetworkAdapterC01.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.

Parameter properties

Type:SwitchParameter
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments: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.

Parameter properties

Type:

CimSession[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False
Aliases:Session

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-IncludeHidden

Indicates that the cmdlet includes both visible and hidden network adapters in the operation. By default only visible network adapters are included. If a wildcard character is used in identifying a network adapter and this parameter has been specified, then the wildcard string is matched against both hidden and visible network adapters.

Parameter properties

Type:SwitchParameter
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-InterfaceDescription

Specifies an array of network adapter interface description. For a physical network adapter this is typically the vendor's name of the network adapter followed by a part number and description, such as Contoso 12345 Gigabit Network Device.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False
Aliases:ifDesc, InstanceID

Parameter sets

ByInstanceID
Position:Named
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:True
Value from remaining arguments:False

-Name

Specifies an array of network adapter names.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False
Aliases:ifAlias, InterfaceAlias

Parameter sets

ByName
Position:0
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:True
Value from remaining arguments: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.

Parameter properties

Type:Int32
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

CommonParameters

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutBuffer, -OutVariable, -PipelineVariable, -ProgressAction, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.

Inputs

None

Outputs

CimInstance

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.
