DESCRIPTION

The Enable-NetAdapterChecksumOffload cmdlet enables checksum offloads on the network adapter. When specified IPv4,

TCPv4, or TCPv6 can be enabled in transmission, receive, or both directions. By default all checksums are enabled in both directions. 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 enables the various checksum offload settings, including IPv4, TCPv4, TCPv6, UDPv4, and UDPv6. Checksum offloading is also required for other stateless offloads to work including receive side scaling (RSS), receive segment coalescing (RSC), and large send offload (LSO).

PARAMETERS

-AsJob []

ps_cimcommon_asjob Required? false Position? named Default value 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. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? 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. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-InputObject

Specifies the input to this cmdlet. You can use this parameter, or you can pipe the input to this cmdlet. Required? true Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? true (ByValue) Accept wildcard characters? false

-InterfaceDescription

Specifies an array of network adapter interface descriptions. For a physical network adapter this is typically the name of the vendor of the network adapter followed by a part number and description, such as Contoso 12345 Gigabit Network Device. Required? true Position? named Default value

Accept pipeline input? true (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? true

-IpIPv4 []

Indicates that this cmdlet enables checksum offload for IPv4 traffic. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-Name

Specifies an array of network adapter names. Required? true Position? 1 Default value

Accept pipeline input? true (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? true

-NoRestart []

Indicates that the cmdlet does not restart the network adapter after completing the operation. Many advanced properties require restarting the network adapter before the new settings take effect. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-PassThru []

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-TcpIPv4 []

Indicates that the cmdlet enables checksum offload for TCP IPv4 traffic. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-TcpIPv6 []

Indicates that the cmdlet enables checksum offload for TCP IPv6 traffic. Required? false Position? named Default value 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 PowerShellr 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. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-UdpIPv4 []

Indicates that the cmdlet enables checksum offload for UDP IPv4 traffic. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-UdpIPv6 []

Indicates that the cmdlet enables checksum offload for UDP IPv6 traffic. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-Confirm []

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet. Required? false Position? named Default value false Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-WhatIf []

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run. Required? false Position? named Default value false Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.

Example 1: Enable IPv4 checksum offloads on all network adapters

PS C:\>Enable-NetAdapterChecksumOffload -Name "*" -TcpIPv4 -UdpIPv4 -IpIPv4

This command enables all IPv4 checksum offloads on all visible network adapters and restarts the network adapters.

Example 2: Enable all checksum offloads on all network adapters

PS C:\>Enable-NetAdapterChecksumOffload -Name "*"

This command enables all checksum offloads on all visible network adapters and restarts the network adapters.
