Report Current Nic Connection Speed

Don,

I've been given a project to report on the current connection speed of every server we own (800 +).  The only thing I've found is a .net command of:

[System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface]::GetAllNetworkInterfaces()

The problem is, I can't figure out how to make it work on a remote computer.  Can someone point me in the right direction please.

Thanks.

There's no inherent way to make that .NET class work remotely, but it's probably your best choice. You'd - unfortunately - be looking at writing a small .NET app, or a PowerShell script (assuming you have PSH on every server), and running it locally on each. If the app logged its results to a central database, you could deploy it.

Alternately, if you're able to deploy PowerShell v2, *it* can push that command out remotely to any machine that has v2 installed and remote shell enabled.

OK.  Thanks for the explanation.
