The Set-NetAdapterDataPathConfiguration cmdlet sets the name of the network adapter, profile,
and the profile source. The profile describes the datapath behavior of NDIS Poll Mode. NDIS Poll
Mode is an operating system controlled polling execution model that drives the network interface
datapath. Currently, Windows supports four built-in profiles for server and two built-in profiles
for client. The built-in profiles can only be set using PowerShell.
Sets the profile to Legacy for the network adapter named Ethernet.
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.

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.

-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.
