The Disable-NetAdapterLso cmdlet disables the state of the large send offload (LSO) settings, such as LSOv4 and LSOv6, on the network adapter.
If neither LSOv4 or LSOv6 is specified, then both are disabled.
LSO is a technology in which the work of segmenting data into network frames is performed by the network adapter instead of by the TCP/IP stack.
With LSO, TCP/IP sends very large data packets down to the network adapter driver and the network adapter hardware.
The network adapter breaks up the data into smaller network-sized frames.
This increases the speed of large packet send operations and decreases the processor usage of the computer, because the work is performed on the network adapter.
To disable individual LSOv4 or LSOv6, run the Set-NetAdapterLso cmdlet.
Examples
Example 1: Disable LSO for IPv6 on a specified network adapter
This command disables the LSO for IPv6 on the network adapter named MyAdapter and restarts the network adapter.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job.
Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt.
You can continue to work in the session while the job completes.
To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets.
To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.

-IncludeHidden
Indicates that the cmdlet includes both visible and hidden network adapters in the operation.
By default only visible network adapters are included.
If a wildcard character is used in identifying a network adapter and this parameter has been specified, then the wildcard string is matched against both hidden and visible network adapters.
