I like to know if there is a way to use PowerShell with WMI to set the MSNdis_currentPacketFilter
PS > Get-WmiObject -class "MSNdis_CurrentPacketFilter" -NameSpace "root\WMI" -Filter "InstanceName='Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter I350-T2'"
__GENUS : 2
__CLASS : MSNdis_CurrentPacketFilter
__SUPERCLASS : MSNdis
__DYNASTY : MSNdis
__RELPATH : MSNdis_CurrentPacketFilter.InstanceName="Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter I350-T2"
__PROPERTY_COUNT : 3
__DERIVATION : {MSNdis}
__SERVER : HYPERV88
__NAMESPACE : root\WMI
__PATH : \\HYPERV88\root\WMI:MSNdis_CurrentPacketFilter.InstanceName="Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter
I350-T2"
Active : True
InstanceName : Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter I350-T2
NdisCurrentPacketFilter : 15
PSComputerName : HYPERV88
And I would like to change the NdisCurrentPacketFilter value from 15 to 47.
I tried
Set-WMIInstance -Path ... -Arguments #{NdisCurrentPacketFilter=47}
But, got error. Thanks in advance!

Here were the commands I tried:
$p=$(Get-WmiObject -class "MSNdis_CurrentPacketFilter" -NameSpace "root\WMI" -Filter "InstanceName='Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter I350-T2'").__Path
Write-Host $p
\\HYPERV88\root\WMI:MSNdis_CurrentPacketFilter.InstanceName="Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter I350-T2"
Set-WmiInstance -Path $p -Arguments #{NdisCurrentPacketFilter=47}
and error (not sure why it said command not found, but command was valid)

I think you are having this issue as according to scriptinternals that value is read-only.
NdisCurrentPacketFilter
Data type: integer/usint32
Access type: Read-only
I found similar information here as well. You should have wrote your error here as well. It might have added context to your issue and it is a best practice when asking questions.
Disclaimer: I know nothing about the class. Just wanted to see if anyone posted details of the class parameters.

I followed the Scripting Guy instructions from Microsoft but even with this I still get the same error Scripting Guy article
here is my script:
$p2=Get-CimInstance -N root\cimv2\power -Class win32_PowerPlan -Filter "ElementName = 'Balanced'"
Invoke-CimMethod -InputObject $p2-MethodName Activate
which results in:
Invoke-CimMethod : This method is not implemented in any class

I cant seem to find answers I have looked in a few locations, I have seen people start to run into this a few months ago but I could not find an answer any advice would be appreciated
my end goal is to write a script where I import a powerplan and then activate it I have the import part working fine it just this last bit. $p contains my imported plan I used $p2 on a default plan for testing purposes.
cheers and thank you in advance for any advice you can offer
I found this code for changing the Power Schema.
Get-CimInstance -N root\cimv2\power -Class win32_PowerPlan | select ElementName, IsActive | ft -a
$p = gwmi -NS root\cimv2\power -Class win32_PowerPlan -Filter "ElementName ='Ultimate Performance'"
$p.Activate()
Get-CimInstance -N root\cimv2\power -Class win32_PowerPlan | select ElementName, IsActive | ft -a
pause
It works on most flavors of Windows O/S. I get this error sometimes.

I'm new to powershell and I'm trying to automate creating a DHCP reservation.
So far I'm able to get the IP address like so:
$IP = ( GEt-VM -ComputerName $HVCOMPUTERNAME -VMName $HVNAME | Get-VMNetworkAdapter).IpAddresses[0]
This returns a string like:
192.0.2.1
However, the Add-DhcpServer4Resrvation cmdlet does not accept an ip address as a string. It requires the IP address be a 'System.Net.IpAddress'
Add-DhcpServerv4Reservation -ComputerName $DHCPServer -ScopeId $DHCPScope -IPAddress $IP -Client
Id $MacAddress -Name $HVNAME
Add-DhcpServerv4Reservation : Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'IPAddress'. Cannot convert value "
10.254.130.104
" to type "System.Net.IPAddress". Error: "An invalid IP address was specified."

How do you convert a string to a System,.Net.IPAddress?
According to this link, it should be easy like
> [ipaddress]"192.0.2.1"
However that doesn't work.
PS C:\Windows\system32> $FOO = [IPAddress]$IP
Cannot convert value "
10.254.130.104

Powershell, get ip4v address of VM
[IPAddress] Wont work if there are spaces in the string
Remove them with Trim()
$IP = [IPAddress]$IP.Trim()
A completely different approach for obtaining IP Address of a server is:
by passing the Workstation/Server name as a parameter to the input type System.Net.DNS cast
For example, if the FQDN name of the host is ABCTest-DEV, then the following script will reveal the IP address of ABCTest-Dev provided, the host has a DNS record already available in the domain.
$ipaddr = [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostAddresses('ABCTest-Dev')|Where AddressFamily -EQ 'InterNetwork'
Write-Host 'This IPV4 Address of the Host is: '$ipaddr
I've got a notepad.exe started in my session :
gwmi -Query "Select CommandLine from Win32_Process where CommandLine='C:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe'"
gives
Get-WmiObject : Demande non valide

I test :
gwmi -Query "Select CommandLine from Win32_Process where CommandLine='C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe'"
It gives nothing
gwmi -Query "Select CommandLine from Win32_Process where CommandLine LIKE '%C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe%'"
Works perfectly
__GENUS : 2

Perhaps it's a trouble with wildcards caracters between PowerShell and WMI, but anyone can help me make filter CommandLine='C:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe' working
The value of the CommandLine property contains quotes, so they need to be escaped as well.
A working, but horrible string is:
gwmi -Query "Select * from Win32_Process where CommandLine = '`"c:\\windows\\system32\\notepad.exe`"'"
You need to include the quotes, but as I can't recall how to escape them in WQL, I would do it in PSH:
gwmi -class Win32_Process -filter "CommandLine like '`"C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe`"'"
Filter expression is in double quotes, with the string argument to LIKE in single quotes. The double quotes that are part of that argument need to be quoted from PowerShell.
Get-Process | ? {$_.Path -eq 'C:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe'}
Get-Process | ? {$_.processname -eq 'notepad'}
I have the following script, but am getting an error -

I didn't try (cause i don't have a MS-DNS at hand right now) but i'd suspect that you need
$Record.PSBase.Put()
to make it work.
EDIT:
As it looks $Record holds an array of System.Object so will have to cast it a suitable type to access .RecordData and .Put()
Your script queries for records of type MicrossoftDNS_CNAMEType which only support CreateInstanceFromPropertyData.
I would try sending you $Record to Get-Member
Get-WmiObject -Namespace "root\microsoftdns" -Query $Query -ComputerName 10.10.10.1 | Get-Member
to find out, what you are dealing with.
