The Netsh commands for wireless local area network (WLAN) provide methods to configure 802.11 wireless
connectivity and security settings for computers running Windows Vista® and Windows Server® 2008. You can
use the Netsh WLAN commands to configure the local computer or to configure multiple computers by using a
logon script. You can also use the netsh WLAN commands to view applied wireless Group Policy settings.
Wireless Network (IEEE 802.11) Policies profiles are read-only, and cannot be modified or deleted by using Netsh
WLAN commands.
To run Netsh WLAN commands on computers running Windows Server 2008, you must first install the Wireless
LAN Service.
Note
On computers running Windows Server 2008, installing the Wireless LAN Service in Server Manager /
Features, adds and starts the WLAN AutoConfig service. WLAN AutoConfig is located in Server
Manager/Diagnostics/Services Microsoft Management Console (MMC). To remove the WLAN AutoConfig
service from a Computer running Windows Server 2008, you must remove (uninstall) the Wireless LAN
Service from Server Manager / Features.
a. In Initial Configuration Tasks, in Customize This Server, click Add Features. The Add
Features Wizard opens.
b. Click Start, and then click Server Manager. In the left pane of Server Manager, click Features,
and in the details pane, in Features Summary, click Add Features. The Add Features Wizard
opens.
2. In Select Features, in Features, scroll down the list, select Wireless LAN Service, and then click Next.
4. In Installation Results, review your installation results, and then click Close.

add filter
Adds a wireless network, by Service Set Identifier (SSID), to the wireless allowed or blocked list.
Syntax
Parameters
Permission
Required. Specifies the permission type of the filter.
SSID
Required [conditional, see "Remarks"]. SSID of the wireless network.
Networktype
Required. Specifies the wireless network type.
Remarks
The ssid parameter is required if permission is allow or block. If permission is denyall, then do not specify the
ssid parameter.
Example commands
add profile
Syntax
Parameters
Filename
Required. Specifies both the path to, and name of the XML file containing the profile data.
Interface
Optional. Specifies the name of the wireless interface on which to add the profile (where InterfaceName is
the name of the wireless interface, as listed in Network Connections, or as rendered by the netsh wlan
show interfaces command)
User
Optional. Specifies whether the profile is applied only to the current user or to all users.
Remarks
The interface parameter is one of the interface names shown by the netsh wlan show interface command. If
the interface parameter is specified, the profile is added to the specified interface. If the interface parameter is
not specified, the profile is added on all wireless interfaces. There is wildcard support for this parameter. You can
use the characters ? and * to replace a letter and letters of the interface name, respectively.

Netsh Commands for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755301(printer).aspx
Syntax
Parameters
SSID
Optional [conditional, see "Remarks"]. Specifies the SSID of the wireless network.
Name
Required. Specifies the name of the wireless profile to use for the connection attempt, (where ProfileName
is the name of the wireless profile, as listed in Manage Wireless Networks, or as rendered by the netsh
wlan show profiles command).
Interface
Required [conditional, see "Remarks"]. Specifies the wireless interface to use for the connection attempt,
(where InterfaceName is the name of the wireless interface, as listed in Network Connections, or as
rendered by the netsh wlan show interfaces command).
Remarks
If only one SSID is specified in the profile, then the specified SSID is used to connect, and the ssid parameter is
not required. If the profile specifies multiple SSIDs, the ssid parameter is required.
The interface parameter is required only if there is more than one wireless interface on the computer. Wildcard
(*) names cannot be used to specify the interface name.
If the specified interface is already connected to a wireless network, this command disconnects the interface from
that network, and then attempts to connect to the new network. If the command attempts to connect to a
network to which the interface is already connected, this command returns a message that the connection was
successful, and does not change the state of the wireless adapter.
Examples
delete filter
Syntax
deletefilterpermission={allow|block|denyall} ssid=WirelessNetworkNamenetworktype=
{infrastructure|adhoc}]
Parameters
Permission
Required. Specifies the permission type of the filter.
SSID
Required [conditional, see "Remarks"]. Specifies the SSID of the wireless network.
Networktype
Required. Specifies whether the wireless network type is adhoc or infrastructure.
Remarks
The ssid parameter is required, unless the value of the permission parameter is denyall. If the permission
parameter is denyall, then the ssid parameter should not be given.

wireless profile, as listed in Manage Wireless Networks, or as rendered by the netsh wlan show
profiles command).
Interface
Optional. Specifies the name of the wireless interface on which to delete the profile, (where InterfaceName
is the name of the wireless interface, as listed in Network Connections, or as rendered by the netsh
wlan show interfaces command).
Remarks
If the interface parameter is specified, then the profile is deleted only from the specified interface.
If the interface parameter is not specified, then the profile is deleted from all interfaces on the computer.
The name parameter can have wildcard characters; if multiple profiles having names that match wildcard
characters, then all such profiles are deleted. You can use the characters ? and * to replace a letter and letters of
the interface name, respectively.
Example commands
disconnect
Syntax
disconnectinterface=InterfaceName
Parameters
Interface
Required [conditional, see "Remarks"]. Specifies which wireless interface is used for the disconnect
attempt , (where InterfaceName is the name of the wireless interface, as listed in Network Connections,
or as rendered by the netsh wlan show interfaces command).
Remarks
The interface parameter is required if there is more than one wireless interface on the computer. You can use
Wildcard (*) characters in the interface name to specify multiple interfaces.
If the specified interface is not already connected to a wireless network, this command returns a message stating
that the disconnection was successful; the state of the wireless adapter does not change.
Example commands

an absolute path or relative path to the current working directory. In addition, "." refers to the current working
directory, and "." refers to the parent directory of the current working directory. The folder name cannot be a
Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path.
If the name parameter is specified but the interface parameter is not, then only that profile is saved. Otherwise
all profiles on the computer with the specified name are saved.
If both the interface parameter and name parameter are specified, only the specified profile for that interface is
saved.
Profiles of specified interfaces are saved in the file name format "InterfaceName ProfileName.xml." Profiles at the
computer level are saved in the file name format "ProfileName.xml."
