Gets IPv4 protocol configurations.
Microsoft NetTCPIP reference: Gets IPv4 protocol configurations. 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-NetIPv4Protocol. Modifying administrative cmdlets may require elevation or delegated administration. This catalog does not assert that ordinary users can execute the command.
Windows / NetTCPIP · Windows Server 2025 documentation; feature/module prerequisites apply
-AddressMaskReply- Specifies an array of values for address mask reply. The cmdlet gets the IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. Address mask reply specifies how the computer responds to ICMP address mask packets. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled. The computer responds to ICMP address mask packets. - Disabled. The computer does not respond to ICMP address mask packets.
-AsJob- Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
-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.
-DeadGatewayDetection- Specifies an array of values for dead gateway detection. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. Dead gateway detection is a feature that identifies gateways that are not operating properly and switches the computer to a new default gateway if available. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled - Disabled
-DefaultHopLimit- Specifies an array of values for the default hop limit. The cmdlet gets the IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. The default hop limit is the default value for the CurrentHopLimit property in the IP interface. The current hop limit is the value that the IP interface writes in the time-to-live (TTL) field in all outbound traffic. When routers forward a packet, they decrement the hop limit by 1 and discard the packet when the hop limit is 0.
-DhcpMediaSense- Specifies an array of values for Media Sense. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. Media Sense provides a mechanism for the network adapter to notify the protocol stack of media connect and disconnect events. These events trigger the DHCP client to take an action, such as attempting to renew a DHCP lease or removing routes that are related to a disconnected network. When Media Sense is enabled, the network parameters on the laptop of a roaming user are automatically and transparently updated without requiring a restart when the user moves from one location to another. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled - Disabled
-GroupForwardedFragments- Specifies an array of values for group forwarded fragments. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. Group forwarded fragments specifies whether the IP interface collects fragments into groups before it forwards the fragments. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled. The IP interface collects IPv4 protocol fragments into groups before it forwards the fragments. - Disabled. The IP interface does not collect IPv4 protocol fragments into groups before it forwards the fragments.
-IGMPLevel- Specifies an array of values for the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) level. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. The IGMP level specifies the level of multicast support. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - None - SendOnly - All
-IGMPVersion- Specifies an array of the IGMP version numbers. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these IGMP version numbers. The IGMP version is the maximum IGMP version supported by the host of IPv4 protocol configuration.
-IcmpRedirects- Specifies an array of values for ICMP redirects. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. ICMP redirects specifies whether to update the path cache in response to ICMP redirect packets. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled. The IP interface updates the path cache in response to ICMP redirect packets. - Disabled. The IP interface does not update the path cache in response to ICMP redirect packets.
-MediaSenseEventLog- Specifies an array of values for Media Sense event log. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. Media Sense event log specifies whether the computer logs DHCP Media Sense events. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled. The IP interface logs DHCP Media Sense events in the event log for troubleshooting purposes. - Disabled. The IP interface does not log DHCP Media Sense events in the event log.
-MinimumMtu- Specifies an array of values, in bytes, for network layer Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU). The cmdlet gets settings that have the Mtu values that you specify.
-MulticastForwarding- Specifies an array of values for multicast forwarding. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled. The computer can forward multicast packets. - Disabled. The computer cannot forward multicast packets.
-NeighborCacheLimitEntries- Specifies an array of values for the maximum number of neighbor cache entries. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values.
-RandomizeIdentifiers- Specifies an array of values for the randomization of identifiers. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Enabled. The IP interface randomizes identifiers when it creates an IP address. - Disabled. The IP interface does not randomize identifiers when it creates an IP address.
-ReassemblyLimitBytes- Specifies an array of values for the maximum size of the reassembly buffer. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values.
-RouteCacheLimitEntries- Specifies an array of values for the maximum number of route cache entries. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values.
-SourceRoutingBehavior- Specifies an array of values for the behavior for source-routed packets. The cmdlet gets IPv4 protocol configurations that have these values. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - DontForward. The computer can receive but not forward source-routed packets. - Drop. The computer drops source-routed packets.
-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.
