Description

The Add-DAMgmtServer cmdlet adds the specified Management servers to the DirectAccess (DA) deployment. Management server here refers to update servers, Domain Controllers, and other servers.

Management server configuration is applicable globally, to the entire DA deployment and therefore is not impacted by multi-site deployments.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\> Add-DAMgmtServer -MgmtServer patch1.corp.contoso.com

This example will try to resolve the given servers to IP address and once resolved, the IP addresses would be added to the list of management servers configured for direct access. Management server configuration is global and hence this will be added to all server GPOs.
