WMI Getting Network Bandwidth for Specific NIC

I'm looking to get the Bytes per/sec from a specific NIC, right now i'm
pulling BytesTotalPersec from
Win32_PerfFormattedData_TCPIP_NetworkInterface. This works great, but it
brings back all NICs, how do i choose which NIC I want?

My code is:

Set ColItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select BytesTotalPersec from
Win32_PerfFormattedData_TCPIP_NetworkInterface")
For Each objItems in colItems
Wscript.Echo "Network Bandwidth: " & objItems.BytesTotalPersec

Next

Thanks

Glenn

Do a filter on the .name property.

Set wmiColl = wmiRoot.ExecQuery("Select * FROM
Win32_PerfRawData_Tcpip_NetworkInterface where name='Network Connection
Name'")
For Each objItems in colItems
Wscript.Echo "Network Bandwidth: " & objItems.BytesTotalPersec
Next

Shouldn't
Set wmiColl
be
Set colItems

Glenn,

I have an identical problem except that the computer I'm looking at has 2
network cards with the same name. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a MAC
Address field in this table? If you found a way around this dilemma, then I'd
love to hear it.

Regards,
Paul.
