DESCRIPTION
The Get-NetTCPSetting cmdlet gets TCP settings. TCP settings are optimized for different network conditions
including latency and congestion. To apply a TCP setting to a port number or destination IP address range, create
a transport filter by using the New-NetTransportFilter cmdlet.
Specify a setting to get by using the SettingName parameter, or by specifying a transport filter that is
associated with a setting. Specify parameter values to determine which settings to get, or do not include any
parameters to get all TCP settings.
PARAMETERS
-AssociatedTransportFilter []
Specifies CIM object for a transport filter associated with a setting. The cmdlet gets the setting for this
transport filter. To obtain a transport filter, use the Get-NetTransportFilter cmdlet.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-AutomaticUseCustom []
Specifies an array of values for whether the automatic profile assigns a custom template, either Datacenter
Custom or Internet Custom, to a connection. The cmdlet gets settings that have the values you specify. The
acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- True
-- False
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-AutoReusePortRangeNumberOfPorts []
Specifies the number of ports for the auto-reuse port range, which is a port range used for local ephemeral
port selection by outbound TCP connections for which either SO_REUSE_UNICASTPORT has been set on the socket,
or for which connect() has been called without calling bind() on the socket.
If you specify 0, the auto-reuse feature is disabled and ephemeral ports are drawn instead from the dynamic
port range as specified by DynamicPortRangeStartPort and DynamicPortRangeNumberOfPorts, even if
SO_REUSE_UNICASTPORT is set on a socket.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false

or for which connect() has been called without calling bind() on the socket.
If you specify 0, the auto-reuse feature is disabled and ephemeral ports are drawn instead from the dynamic
port range as specified by DynamicPortRangeStartPort and DynamicPortRangeNumberOfPorts, even if
SO_REUSE_UNICASTPORT is set on a socket.

OUTPUTS
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root\StandardCimv2\MSFT_NetTCPSetting
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.
Example 1: Get all TCP settings
PS C:\>Get-NetTCPSetting
This command gets TCP settings. The command specifies no parameters, so it gets all TCP settings.
Example 2: Get Internet TCP settings
PS C:\>Get-NetTCPSetting -Setting Internet
This command gets TCP settings that are optimized for connectivity across the Internet.
Example 3: View formatted TCP settings
PS C:\>Get-NetTcpSetting | Format-Table
This command gets TCP settings, and then passes them to the Format-Table cmdlet by using the pipeline operator.
That cmdlet displays the results as a summary in a table view. For more information, type Get-Help Format-Table.
