Item

Description

[SpeedType=<Auto|Preferred|Custom>] [Speed=<speed>]

Parameter

ProfileName (required)

The name of an existing profile to which the new connection is added.

Properties

Network (optional)

The name of an existing network to associate with the connection. If the

network name is not specified, or is set to "unassigned", then the network
remains unassigned and can be assigned later.

PXE (optional)

Enables or disables PXE on the network connection. Valid values are

"enabled", "disabled", and "UseBios". If this value is not specified, the
default is "UseBios".
Only one connection can have PXE enabled per profile.

AddressType (optional)

The source of MAC address assignments to be used during the creation of
the new connection. If not specified, the default is the domain default. If
"User-Defined" is specified, then both an Ethernet MAC Address and

iSCSI MAC Address must also be specified. Valid values include
"Factory-Default" and "User-Defined".

EthernetMAC (required if

AddressType is

User-Defined)

The user-defined Ethernet MAC address to use for the connection. This
property is required if the AddressType specified is "User-Defined".

iScsiMAC (required if

AddressType is

User-Defined)

The user-defined iSCSI MAC address to use for the connection. This
property is required if the AddressType specified is "User-Defined".

SpeedType (optional)

The requested operational speed for the server port. Valid values include
"Auto", "Preferred", and "Custom". The default value is "Preferred".

If the speed type is "Auto", the maximum port speed is determined by the
maximum configured speed for the network.
If the speed type is "Preferred", the speed of the network is the same as the

preferred speed of the network to which the connection is associated. If no
preferred speed is configured for a network, it defaults to "Auto".
If the speed type is "Custom", the user can configure any speed from

100Mb to MAX configured speed for the network in 100Mb increments.

(Speed (required if the

SpeedType is Custom)

The user-defined speed for the server port. Valid values include 100Mb to

MAX configured speed for the network in 100Mb increments.
