Syntax

Disable-UMIPGateway
       [-Identity] <UMIPGatewayIdParameter>
       [-Confirm]
       [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
       [-Immediate <Boolean>]
       [-WhatIf]
       [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The status variable for a UM IP gateway can be used to enable or disable call answering destined for the IP gateway. The Disable-UMIPGateway cmdlet disables a UM IP gateway in Active Directory by modifying its status variable. After this task is completed, the UM IP gateway no longer answers incoming calls or makes outgoing calls.

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

Disable-UMIPGateway -Identity MyUMIPGateway

This example disables the UM IP gateway MyUMIPGateway and stops it from accepting incoming calls from the IP gateway.

Example 2

Disable-UMIPGateway -Identity MyUMIPGateway -Immediate $true

This example disables the UM IP gateway MyUMIPGateway and disconnects all current calls immediately.

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.

This cmdlet has a built-in pause, so use -Confirm:$false to skip the confirmation.
