Description
The Remove-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet removes Hyper-V virtual switches and the settings for the virtual switches from a Remote Packet Capture provider. You can specify the names of Hyper-V virtual switches, or use the InputObject parameter to specify a NetEventVmSwitch object to remove. To obtain a NetEventVmSwitch object, use the Get-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet. When you remove a Hyper-V virtual switch, the Remote Packet Capture provider no longer uses the Hyper-V virtual switch to capture event packets.
The protocol stack uses multiple layers to transmit, receive, and process network traffic as packets. The provider logs network traffic as Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) events.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a Hyper-V virtual switch from a provider
PS C:\>New-NetEventSession -Name "NESession01"
PS C:\> Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider -SessionName "NESession01"
PS C:\> Add-NetEventVMSwitch -Name "Network Adapter 2 - Virtual Switch"
PS C:\> Remove-NetEventVMSwitch -Name "Network Adapter 2 - Virtual Switch"
This example removes a Hyper-V virtual switch from the Remote Packet Capture for a network session.
The first command uses New-NetEventSession the creates the network session named NESession01.
The second command uses the Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider cmdlet to add a Remote Packet Capture provider for the session named NESession01.
The third command uses the Add-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet to add the Hyper-V virtual switch named Network Adapter 2 - Virtual Switch as a filter on the Remote Packet Capture provider.
The fourth command removes the Hyper-V virtual switch named Network Adapter 2 - Virtual Switch from the provider.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

-Name
Specifies an array of names of Hyper-V virtual switches to remove.
Parameter properties
| Type: | String[] |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |

Parameter sets
ByName
| Position: | 0 |
| Mandatory: | True |

-PassThru
Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.
If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer.
The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
