[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Set-NetQosPolicy cmdlet modifies an existing Quality of Service (QoS) policy. Match conditions or actions or general parameters of the policy such as NetworkProfile or Precedence can be changed.
Users cannot change the location of where an existing QoS policy is stored. Changing the PolicyStore parameter value will fail.
If a policy was created to be in ActiveStore and a user attempts to make it persistent, such as storing the policy on the local computer, the user has to create a new policy and place it on the local computer (localhost).
If the PolicyStore parameter is not specified, then the cmdlet will search for and update the policy on the local computer (localhost).
Examples
Example 1: Update a QoS policy to apply to outgoing traffic from a domain-joined adapter
PS C:\> Set-NetQosPolicy -Name "SMB Policy" -NetworkProfile DomainThis command updates the QoS policy named SMB Policy so that it only applies to traffic that is outgoing from a domain-joined network adapter.
Example 2: Update the precedence of a policy
PS C:\> Get-NetQosPolicy -Name "wildcard" | Set-NetQosPolicy -Precedence 250This command gets the QoS policy named wildcard and updates the precedence of the policy to 250.
Example 3: Add additional matching conditions
PS C:\> Set-NetQosPolicy -Name "Backup" -IPDstPortStart 3501 -IPDstPortEnd 3510This command updates the QoS policy named Backup with additional matching conditions.
Example 4: Update a QoS policy
PS C:\> Set-NetQosPolicy -Name "IIS" -Recursive $True -ThrottleRateActionBitsPerSecond 3000KBThis command updates the QoS policy named IIS, so that it applies to the return traffic for both the specified URI and subdirectories and files under the URI. This cmdlet also sets a new throttling rate at 3,000,000 bytes per second. An alias for the ThrottleRateActionBitsPerSecond parameter is ThrottleRateAction. Another alias is MaxBw.
