How do you attach a Virtual Network Adapter to a VM Using WMI?

i looking samples or information on how attach external virtual network adapter instance of vm.   have been able integrate hyper-v using wmi , c#.     language sample great (vbscript, powershell, etc)

 

i believe related msvm_externalethernetport, don't see how associate this instance of vm (msvm_computersystem).  

 

thanks!

assuming have virtual switch (virtual network), you’ll need to:

 

1.     create switch port on virtual switch (“createswitchport” method of msvm_virtualswitchmanagementservice).

 

2.      add either msvm_syntheticethernetportsettingdata or msvm_emulatedethernetportsettingdata computer system.  “synthetic” shows “network adapter” , “emulated” shows “legacy network adapter” in hyper-v ui.

 

3.      set connection property of setting data switch port created in step 1.

 

the msvm_externalethernertport represents physical nic it's useful in terms of virtual switch connecting physical network.
