    Hi all

    Get-NetConnectionProfile

    This lists multiple connections.

    What command can I use to give me the results for just the below connection ie 

    if the InterfaceAlias is "Tunnel" and the Name is "mydomain.uk"   ?

    Name : mydomain.uk
    InterfaceAlias : Tunnel
    InterfaceIndex : 87
    NetworkCategory : DomainAuthenticated
    IPv4Connectivity : Internet
    IPv6Connectivity : NoTraffic

    I've tried a piped where -match - like -eq, I'm getting the syntax wrong somewhere.

    Thanks for any info.

    This should do it:

      Get-NetConnectionProfile | where-object {$_.InterfaceAlias -eq 'Tunnel' -and $_.Name -eq 'mydomain.uk'}

    I would suggest that you read the help for the CmdLet as it answers your question directly.

    Get-NetConnectionProfile -name mydomain.uk

    The help does not help with the 2nd requirement.

    I need it to show me the InterfaceAlias ...IF name is mydomain.uk

    This is so later I can invoke a : do until "InterfaceAlias = Tunnel...AND name =mydomain.uk"

    I wouldn't use a "Do {…} Until (<condition>)" unless you're very sure that the <condition> will, at some point, be satisfied. If it isn't, you'll loop forever!

    Thank you Rich...perfect.

    I noticed it still works with...just " | where   "

    What is the relevance of -object ?

    I hear you on the do condition, it does indeed complete eventually.

    Cheers.

    "Where" is shorthand (an alias) for "Where-Object", just like "Select" is for "Select-Object". But be careful of "ForEach-Object" and "ForEach" because depending on how/where you use them "ForEach" can interpreted as either a keyword or a cmdlet.

    The "Do" loop may complete in your situation today, but if I were you I wouldn't be my paycheck on it completing every time!
