Examples

Example 1: Set a credential for a DHCP server

This example saves a credential on a DHCP server. The DHCP server uses the credential to register or deregister client records on a DNS server.

The first command uses the Get-Credential cmdlet to create a PSCredential object, and then stores it in the $Credential variable. The cmdlet prompts you for user name and password. For more information, type Get-Help Get-Credential.

The second command specifies the credential object stored in the $Credential variable for the DHCP server named DhcpServer03.Contoso.com.

PS C:\> $Credential = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Set-DhcpServerDnsCredential -Credential $Credential -ComputerName "DhcpServer03.Contoso.com"

Example 2: Prompt the user for a credential for a DHCP server

This command sets the DNS credentials that the server that runs DHCP server uses for registering and deregistering client records with the DNS server. The cmdlet prompts you for user name and password.

PS C:\> Set-DhcpServerDnsCredential -ComputerName "DhcpServer03.Contoso.com"
