Microsoft NetAdapter reference: Gets network adapters that support RSC. The syntax and selected example below are adapted from the pinned Windows Server 2025 reference. Module availability, target configuration and delegated permissions determine whether it can run in your environment. Documentation and parameter text: Microsoft, CC BY 4.0; formatting adapted by Cmdlet World. No execution testing is claimed.
Use an account with the target resource permissions documented for Get-NetAdapterRsc. Modifying administrative cmdlets may require elevation or delegated administration. This catalog does not assert that ordinary users can execute the command.

Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.
-CimSession
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
-IPv4FailureReason
Specifies the reason that RSC may not be working on IPv4 traffic. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - NoFailure - NicPropertyDisabled - WFPCompatibility - NDISCompatibility - ForwardingEnabled - NetOffloadGlobalDisabled
-IPv4OperationalState
Specifies the state of the TCP/IP protocol driver for RSC. See the *IPv4FailureReason* parameter value for more information.
-IPv6FailureReason
Returns the reason that of RSC may not be working on IPv6 traffic. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - NoFailure - NicPropertyDisabled - WFPCompatibility - NDISCompatibility - ForwardingEnabled - NetOffloadGlobalDisabled If RSC is desired, then the following actions can be taken: - NicPropertyDisabled: Run the Enable-NetAdapterRsc cmdlet to enable RSC on the specified network adapter. - WFPCompatibility: Disable the WFP filters. - NDISCompatibility: Upgrade to an NDIS 6.30 driver. - ForwardingEnabled: Disable forwarding. - NetOffloadGlobalDisabled: Run the Set-NetOffloadGlobalSetting cmdlet with the *ReceiveSegmentCoalescing* parameter set to Enabled.
-IPv6OperationalState
Specifies the state of the TCP/IP protocol driver for RSC. See the *IPv6FailureReason* parameter value for more information.
-IncludeHidden
Indicates that the cmdlet includes both visible and hidden network adapters in the operation. By default only visible network adapters are included. If a wildcard character is used in identifying a network adapter and this parameter has been specified, then the wildcard string is matched against both hidden and visible network adapters.
-InterfaceDescription (required)
Specifies an array of network adapter interface descriptions. For a physical network adapter this is typically the name of the vendor of the network adapter followed by a part number and description, such as Contoso 12345 Gigabit Network Device.
-Name
Specifies an array of network adapter names.
-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Prerequisites
Windows with the NetAdapter module and the Windows feature or management tools that provide it. Confirm target connectivity and version compatibility using the linked Microsoft reference.
Security considerations
This is a read-oriented cmdlet; protect any sensitive results and check the documented effects of your selected parameters.
