Custom Port Property Definition and Registration

Artikkeli
12/15/2021

Custom property definitions for a Hyper-V extensible switch port policy are registered with the WMI management layer by using managed object format (MOF) class definitions. In addition to the structure members that define the attributes of the custom port property, the MOF class must also contain the following:

A UUID that uniquely identifies the custom port property.
A GUID that uniquely identifies the extensible switch extension. This GUID is declared as the ExtensionId qualifier of the MOF class and must match the value of the NetCfgInstanceId entry that is declared in the extension's INF file.
A descriptive class name string. The name of the vendor must be included in the string.

The following shows an example of a MOF class for a custom property of an extensible switch port policy.

#pragma namespace("\\\\.\\root\\virtualization\\v2")

 UUID("EB29F0F2-F5DC-45C6-81BB-3CD9F219BBBB"),

      InterfaceVersion("1"),
      InterfaceRevision("0"),
      Description (
         "int32 setting.") : Amended]
    uint32 SettingIntA = 0;

    [ Read,
      Write,
      WmiDataId(2),
      InterfaceVersion("1"),
      InterfaceRevision("0"),
      Description (

    uint64 SettingIntB = 0;
};

The MOF classes for custom properties of a port policy are registered in the common information model (CIM) repository by using the MOF compiler (Mofcomp.exe). Once registered, the MOF class can be configured through PowerShell cmdlets and WMI-based application programs.

The following example shows the commands that must be entered to register a file (Fabrikam_PortCustomSettingData.mof) that contains the MOF class for a custom port property.

net stop vmms
mofcomp -N:root\virtualization\v2 Fabrikam_PortCustomSettingData.mof
net start vmms

For more information about how to use the MOF compiler, see Compiling a Driver's MOF File.

The following example shows how you can configure the sample feature. In this example, the Fabrikam_PortCustomSettingData MOF class is used to configure a port from a Hyper-V partition named "TestVm".

# Retrieve the template object for the custom configuration. We know the ID already so
# we can retrieve it directly, otherwise Get-VmSystemSwitchExtensionPortFeature can list all available
# properties. 
PS C:\> $feature = Get-VMSystemSwitchExtensionPortFeature -FeatureId EB29F0F2-F5DC-45C6-81BB-3CD9F219BBBB

# Output the values
PS C:\> $feature
