Description

The New-UMHuntGroup cmdlet creates a UM hunt group in Active Directory. Running this cmdlet enables all Mailbox servers associated with UM dial plans to communicate with an IP gateway. A UM hunt group must be created to allow communication between a UM IP gateway and a UM dial plan.

After this task is completed, a new UM hunt group is created.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

New-UMHuntGroup -Name MyUMHuntGroup -PilotIdentifier 12345 -UMDialPlan MyUMDialPlan -UMIPGateway MyUMIPGateway

This example creates the UM hunt group MyUMHuntGroup that has a pilot identifier of 12345.

Example 2

New-UMHuntGroup -Name MyUMHuntGroup -PilotIdentifier 5551234,55555 -UMDialPlan MyUMDialPlan -UMIPGateway MyUMIPGateway

This example creates the UM hunt group MyUMHuntGroup that has multiple pilot identifiers.

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
