(It's great!)\r\nIf I might offer an order of priorities based on that use-case, I would prioritise \r\n- 'Get-' and 'Test-' CmdLets over 'Set-' \u0026 mutators\r\n- NetTcpIp over other Net* modules\r\n\r\nRationale:  In container and serverless application/service deployment, the ability (and hence the need) to mutate hardware and security configuration is limited; but the need to inspect network configuration does not go away.\r\n\r\nSo top of my list are:\r\n\r\n```powershell\r\nGet-NetIPAddress\r\nTest-NetConnection\r\nGet-NetIPConfiguration\r\nGet-NetIPInterface\r\nResolve-DnsName\r\nFind-NetRoute\r\n```\r\n\r\nEnvironment data\r\n----------------\r\n```powershell\r\n\r\n\u003e $PSVersionTable                                                                                                                                              \r\n\r\nName                           Value                                                                                                                                         \r\n----                           -----                                                                                                                                         \r\nPSVersion                      6.0.1                                                                                                                                         \r\nPSEdition                      Core                                                                                                                                          \r\nGitCommitId                    v6.0.1                                                                                                                                        \r\nOS                             Darwin 17.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 17.4.0: Sun Dec 17 09:19:54 PST 2017; root:xnu-4570.41.2~1/RELEASE_X86_64                                 \r\nPlatform                       Unix                                                                                                                                          \r\nPSCompatibleVersions           {1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0...}                                                                                                                       \r\nPSRemotingProtocolVersion      2.3                                                                                                                                           \r\nSerializationVersion           1.1.0.1                                                                                                                                       \r\nWSManStackVersion              3.0  \r\n\r\n\u003e $PSVersionTable\r\nPSVersion                      6.0.0-rc\r\nPSEdition                      Core\r\nGitCommitId                    v6.0.0-rc\r\nOS                             Linux 4.4.51-40.58.amzn1.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Feb 28 21:57:17 UTC 2017\r\nPlatform                       Unix\r\nPSCompatibleVersions           {1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0...}\r\nPSRemotingProtocolVersion      2.3\r\nSerializationVersion           1.1.0.1\r\nWSManStackVersion              3.0\r\n```\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/chrisfcarroll","@type":"Person","name":"chrisfcarroll"},"datePublished":"2018-01-31T11:58:42.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":45},"url":"https://github.com/6076/PowerShell/issues/6076"}
