[/MulticastSessionPolicy] |
Configures the transfer settings for multicast transmissions. This command is only available for Windows Server 2008 R2.- [/Policy:{None | AutoDisconnect | Multistream}] Determines how to handle slow clients. None means to keep all clients in one session at the same speed. AutoDisconnect means that any clients that drop below the specified /Threshold are disconnected. Multistream means clients will be separated into multiple sessions as specified by /StreamCount.- [/Threshold:<Speed in KBps>] Sets the minimum transfer rate in KBps for /Policy:AutoDisconnect. Clients that drop below this rate are disconnected from multicast transmissions.- [/StreamCount:{2 | 3}] [/Fallback:{Yes | No}] Determines the number of sessions for /Policy:Multistream. 2 means two sessions (fast and slow), and 3 means three sessions (slow, medium, fast).- [/Fallback:{Yes | No}] Determines whether clients tha are disconnected will continue the transfer by using another method (if supported by the client). If you are using the WDS client, the computer will fall back to unicasting. Wdsmcast.exe does not support a fallback mechanism. This option also applies to clients that do not support Multistream. In that case, the computer will fall back to another method instead of moving to a slower transfer session. |
- [/start: <IP address>] Sets the start of the IP address range. This is required and valid only if this option is set to Range.- [/End: <IP address>] Sets the end of the IP address range. This is required and valid only if this option is set to Range.- [/startPort: <port>] Sets the start of the port range.- [/EndPort: <port>] Sets the end of the port range. |

Examples |
To set the IPv4 address range for the server, type: |
wdsutil /Set-TransportServer /ObtainIpv4From:Range /start:239.0.0.1 /End:239.0.0.100 |
To set the IPv4 address range, port range, and profile for the server, type: |
wdsutil /Set-TransportServer /Server:MyWDSServer /ObtainIpv4From:Range /start:239.0.0.1 /End:239.0.0.100 /startPort:12000 /EndPort:50000 /Profile:10mbps |

wdsutil start-multicasttransmission |
Applies to: Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012 |
Starts a Scheduled-Cast transmission of an image. |
Syntax |
Windows Server 2008 |
wdsutil /start-MulticastTransmissiomedia:<Image name> [/Server:<Server namemediatype:InstallmediaGroup:<Image group name>] [/Filename:<File name>] |
Windows Server 2008 R2 |
for boot images: |
wdsutil [Options] /start-MulticastTransmissiomedia:<Image name> |
[/Server:<Server name>] |
mediatype:Boot |
/Architecture:{x86 | ia64 | x64} |
[/Filename:<File name>] |
for install images: |
wdsutil [Options] /start-MulticastTransmissiomedia:<Image name> |
[/Server:<Server name>] |
mediatype:Install |
mediaGroup:<Image Group>] |
[/Filename:<File name>] |
Parameters |
Parameter |
Description |
media:<Image name> |
Specifies the name of the image. |
[/Server:<Server name>] |
Specifies the name of the server. This can be either the NetBIOS name or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN). If no server name is specified, the local server will be used. |
mediatype:{Install|Boot} |
Specifies the image type. Note that this option must be set to Install for Windows Server 2008. |
/Architecture:{x86 | ia64 | x64} |
The architecture of the boot image that is associated with the transmission to start. Since it is possible to have the same image name for boot images in different architectures, you should specify the architecture to ensure that the correct transmission is used. |
\mediaGroup:<Image group name>] |
Specifies the image group of the image. If no image group name is specified and only one image group exists on the server, that image group will be used. If more than one image group exists on the server, you must use this option to specify the image group name. |
