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. (optional)
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-

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-

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-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-
MAX Configured speed for the network in 100Mb increments.
