DESCRIPTION


The Disable-NetAdapterRss cmdlet disables receive side scaling (RSS) on the network adapter. RSS is a scalability technology that distributes the receive network traffic
among multiple processors by hashing the header of the incoming packet. Without RSS in WindowsServer®2008 and later, network traffic is processed on the first processor
which can quickly reach full utilization limiting receive network throughput. Running this cmdlet can reduce the performance of servers running Windows Server® 2012 and
later. Various properties can be configured to optimize the performance of RSS.
