DESCRIPTION


The Add-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on a Remote Packet Capture provider. Use this cmdlet multiple times to add multiple Hyper-V virtual
switches. To get existing Hyper-V virtual switches, use the Get-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet.


The protocol stack uses multiple layers to transmit, receive, and process network traffic as packets. The provider logs network traffic as Event Tracing for Windows (ETW)
events.

Examples


Example 1: Add a Hyper-V virtual switch on a provider

PS C:\>New-NetEventSession -Name "NESession01"
PS C:\> Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider -SessionName "NESession01"
PS C:\> Add-NetEventVMSwitch -Name �Network Adapter 2 - Virtual Switch"



This example adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on the Remote Packet Capture provider for a network session. After you complete these commands to configure the
network session, you can start and stop the event and packet capture for the network session by using the Start-NetEventSession and Stop-NetEventSession cmdlets.

The first command uses the New-NetEventSession cmdlet to create a network session named NESession01.

The second command uses the Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider cmdlet to add a Remote Packet Capture provider for the session named NESession01.

The third command adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on the Remote Packet Capture provider.
