Example 1: Get all initiator ports
PS C:\>Get-InitiatorPort
InstanceName NodeAddress PortAddress ConnectionType
------------ ----------- ----------- --------------
ROOT\ISCSIPRT\0000_0 iqn.1991-05.com.contoso:... ISCSI ANY PORT iSCSI
This example gets all available initiator ports.
Example 2: Get all initiator ports, and filter the display
PS C:\>Get-InitiatorPort | Select-Object -Property NodeAddress,ConnectionType | Format-Table -AutoSize
NodeAddress ConnectionType
----------- --------------
