Description

This resource is used to configure the IP interface settings for a network interface.

Known Issues

• If you define a value for InterfaceMetric, the AutomaticMetric setting is ignored. PowerShell ignores AutomaticMetric when you use both arguments with the Set-NetIPInterface cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

This example enables the following settings on the IPv4 network interface with alias 'Ethernet':

• AdvertiseDefaultRoute
• Avertising
• AutomaticMetric
• DirectedMacWolPattern
• ForceArpNdWolPattern
• Forwarding
• IgnoreDefaultRoute
• ManagedAddressConfiguration
• NeighborUnreachabilityDetection
• OtherStatefulConfiguration
• RouterDiscovery
• NlMtu The EcnMarking parameter will be set to AppDecide.
