Add-DhcpServerv4MulticastScope

Adds a multicast scope on the DHCP server.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Add0
Add-DhcpServerv4MulticastScope [-Name] <String> [-StartRange] <IPAddress> [-EndRange] <IPAddress> [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-ComputerName <String> ] [-Description <String> ] [-ExpiryTime <DateTime> ] [-LeaseDuration <TimeSpan> ] [-PassThru] [-State <String> ] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [-Ttl <UInt32> ] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Add-DhcpServerv4MulticastScope cmdlet adds a multicast scope on the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.

Parameters

-AsJob

-CimSession<CimSession[]>

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

-ComputerName<String>

Specifies the DNS name or IP address of the target computer that runs the DHCP Server service.

-Description<String>

Specifies a description of the multicast scope. The default value is null.

-EndRange<IPAddress>

Specifies the end address of the range for the scope.

-ExpiryTime<DateTime>

Specifies the expiry time of the multicast scope. The default value is infinite.

-LeaseDuration<TimeSpan>

Specifies the duration of the IP address lease. The default value 30 days.

-Name<String>

Specifies a name for the multicast scope.

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

-StartRange<IPAddress>

Specifies the start address of the range of IP addresses for the scope.

-State<String>

Specifies the state of the scope. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
     -- Active
     -- Inactive

The default value is Active.

-ThrottleLimit<Int32>

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

-Ttl<UInt32>

Specifies the number of routers through which multicast traffic passes. The default value is 32.

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

Examples

Example 1: Add an inactive multicast scope

This command creates an inactive multicast scope named Multicast_AudioConference on the DHCP server named DhcpServer01.Contoso.com. The command specifies the lease duration of 20 days for allocating addresses to participants of audio conferences. You can allocate a single multicast address to multiple clients. The command specifies that the traffic passes through 20 routers.

PS C:\> Add-DhcpServerv4MulticastScope -ComputerName "DhcpServer01.Contoso.com" -Name "Multicast_AudioConference" -StartRange 224.0.0.0 -EndRange 224.0.0.30 -State Inactive -Ttl 20-LeaseDuration 20

Example 2: Add an active multicast scope

This command creates an active multicast scope named Multicast_AudioConference on the DHCP server named DhcpServer01.Contoso.com. You can use the multicast scope on the DHCP server service for allocating addresses to participants of video conferences. You can allocate a single multicast address to multiple clients. The traffic passes through 32 routers, and the lease duration is 30 days.

PS C:\> Add-DhcpServerv4MulticastScope -ComputerName "DhcpServer01.Contoso.com" -Name "Multicast_VideoConference" -StartRange 224.0.0.50 -EndRange 224.0.0.80
