Microsoft NetTCPIP reference: Gets TCP connections. 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-NetTCPConnection. Modifying administrative cmdlets may require elevation or delegated administration. This catalog does not assert that ordinary users can execute the command.

Parameters
-AppliedSetting
Specifies an array of values of applied settings. The cmdlet gets connections that match the settings that you specify. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Internet - Datacenter - Compat - Custom
-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.
-CreationTime
Specifies an array of DateTime objects. To get a DateTime object, use the Get-Date cmdlet.
-LocalAddress
Specifies an array of local IP addresses. The cmdlet gets connections for the addresses that you specify.
-LocalPort
Specifies an array of local ports. The cmdlet gets connections for the ports that you specify.
-OffloadState
Specifies the offload state of a TCP connection.
-OwningProcess
Specifies the PID of the owning process of a TCP connection.
-RemoteAddress
Specifies an array of remote IP addresses. The cmdlet gets connections for the addresses that you specify.
-RemotePort
Specifies an array of remote ports. The cmdlet gets connections for the ports that you specify.
-State
Specifies an array of TCP states. The cmdlet gets connections that match the states that you specify. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - Bound - Closed - CloseWait - Closing - DeleteTCB - Established - FinWait1 - FinWait2 - LastAck - Listen - SynReceived - SynSent - TimeWait
-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 NetTCPIP 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.
