Description

I've tried looking through all the options and I don't see one that allows me to configure a 'standby adapter'. If this isn't available could it possibly be added?

It can be done in PowerShell with...

Set-NetLbfoTeamMember -Name "NIC4" -AdministrativeMode Standby

Research direction

Start by locating the DSC resource that configures network teams and reviewing how its team-member settings are represented. Compare the available settings with the PowerShell command Set-NetLbfoTeamMember -Name "NIC4" -AdministrativeMode Standby; done means a team member can be configured with standby administrative mode and the resource validates and applies that setting.
