network adapter

Returns the nth adapter of the specified network.

Returns the named adapter of the specified network.

Returns the adapters associated with the specified network adapter interface.

Returns the one or more network adapter objects of the network.

No documentation exists.

This inspector returns the same as 'adapter of <network>', but it includes loopback and tunnels.

This inspector lets you find a network adapter from the "Friendly Name".

Returns the address list of the network adapter.

Returns the ip address of the network adapter (returns the first address if it is a list).

Returns the broadcast address of the specified network adapter as an <ipv4 address>.

Returns True if the specified network adapter supports broadcast.

Returns the CIDR address of the specified network adapter as a string type, for example, 192.168.0.0/16 (IPv4) or 2001:db8::/32 (IPv6).

Returns the Classless Inter-Domain Routing value for the specified network adapter as a string value.

Returns the CIDR subnet of the specified network adapter.

Returns the description of the network adapter.

Returns True if dhcp is enabled on the network adapter.

Returns the ip address of the dhcp server of the network adapter (returns the first address if it is a list).

Returns a list of DNS servers used by the specified adapter.

Returns the Domain Name System (DNS) suffix associated with the specified adapter.

Returns a user-friendly name for the adapter, for example "Local Area Connection 1".

Returns the gateway network address list of the network adapter.

Returns the ip address of the gateway of the network adapter.

Returns a network interface object from the specified network adapter.

Creates a Windows XP firewall object.

Returns an object or an object list (using the plural keyword) with all the ip interfaces of the specified network adapter.

No documentation exists.

Returns the IPv4 interface of the specified network adapter as a <network adapter ip interface> type.

Returns the ipv4or6 address of the DNS server of the specified network adapter.

No documentation exists.

Returns the ipv4or network adapter interface from the specified network adapter.

Returns the local IP address (as IPv6) of the adapter. Only for XP/Server 2003 and later.

Returns the DNS server address (as IPv6) of the adapter. Only for XP/Server 2003 and later.

No documentation exists.

Returns the IPv6 interfaces of the specified network adapter as a network adapter interface type.

Returns the time that the dhcp lease will expire of the network adapter.

Returns the time that the dhcp lease was obtained of the network adapter.

Returns the network link interface(s) of the specified network adapter.

This is a property of a network adapter. It returns the maximum speed of the NIC card in bits per second.

Returns True if the specified network adapter is a loopback interface.

Returns the mac address of the network adapter.

The maximum transmission unit (MTU) size, in bytes, of the specified adapter.

Returns True or False depending on whether the network adapter is currently connected and set as a metered connection. This corresponds to the status of the Set as metered connection checkbox in the connection properties displayed by the Windows Settings application. If the network adapter is not connected, this property is False. Note: On Windows Server, this property is always False, because Windows Server editions do not expose metered-connection cost information.

In the following example, a Windows computer has three network adapters:

• Ethernet0, not connected to a network
• Ethernet1, connected to a network and not metered
• Ethernet2, connected to a network and metered

In the following example, a Windows computer has a Wi-Fi network adapter that is not connected to a network.

In the following example, a Windows computer has a Wi-Fi network adapter that is connected to a network and not metered.

In the following example, a Windows computer has a Wi-Fi network adapter that is connected to a network and metered.

Returns True if multicast messages are supported by the specified network adapter.

Returns the name of the network adapter.

Returns True if the specified network adapter is a point-to-point interface. Usually TRUE for dialup connections.

Returns the IPv4 address of the primary wins server of the specified network adapter.

Returns the IPv4 address of the secondary wins server of the specified network adapter.As of version 8.0 of BES, this inspector type is derived from an <ipv4or6 address> type.

The operational status for the interface as defined in RFC 2863. It can be one of the values from the IF_OPER_STATUS enumeration type defined in the Iftypes.h header file. On Windows Vista and later, the header files were reorganized and this enumeration is defined in the Ifdef.h header file.

Returns the subnet address (IPv4) of the specified network adapter.

Returns the subnet mask (IPv4) of the specified network adapter.

Returns True if the specified adapter is a tunnel.

Returns the interface type of the specified adapter as defined by the Internet Assigned Names Authority (IANA). Possible values for the interface type are listed in the Ipifcons.h header file.

Returns True if the specified network adapter is currently working. Interfaces like Wi-Fi may be turned it off to save power, but this inspector will still tell you if it is active.

Returns True if the specified network adapter is configured to react to Wake-On-Lan requests. Wake-On-Lan is a mechanism used to trigger a boot of a machine in standby mode by sending a special packet.Note: Wake-On-Lan is only supported for Windows 2000 and XP machines.

Filters the network adapter object by Wi-Fi type and creates the <wifi> object(s)

Returns True if WINS is enabled on the network adapter.
