Hi guys.

I have Windows Server 2008,Windows Server 2012 servers and I would like to get the binding order for the nic cards. Or at a mimumum the first nic card in the binding order.

I tried every relevence code in
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=77777777-0000-0000-0000-000014751070
and they all seem not to work.

Does anyone have any idea on how to get this done?

Thank You for your time.
Rene

Try the following relevance in the QNA tool.

(friendly name of it, name of it, (if exists address of it then address of it as string else “no address”) ) of adapters of network

I haven’t looked for that specifically, but for my more complex networking tasks I use a Policy Action that performs a ‘netsh.exe dump > netsh-cfg.txt’ to save the configuration periodically. Then I tie my Relevance to parsing the output file.

Be sure to regenerate the file in each fixlet that makes changes, so it can evaluate success/failure properly.

Thanks so much,

Hi Rene. Glad that worked for you, but I can’t take credit for the relevance. That’s a John Talbert (IBM) special from the relevance class taught here in Cincinnati. -Casey
