    .SYNOPSIS
    Reports the details of VMWare host's physical network adapters

    .DESCRIPTION
    This script will retreive the network adapters of the hypervisor machine and output their details

    .PARAMETER HypervisorPlatform
    The hypervisor platform, will be passed from ControlUp Console

    .PARAMETER VCenter
    The name of the vcenter server that will be connected to to run the PowerCLI commands

    .PARAMETER Host
    The name of the host the action is to be performed on/for.

    .EXAMPLE
    Example is not relevant as this script will be called through ControlUp Console

    .NOTES
    VMware PowerCLI needs to be installed on the machine running the script.
