Export-AutoDiscoverConfig

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.

The DeleteConfig parameter causes the command to delete your configuration settings on the service connection point object.

The DomainController parameter specifies the domain controller that's used by this cmdlet to read data from or write data to Active Directory. You identify the domain controller by its fully qualified domain name (FQDN). For example, dc01.contoso.com.

The MultipleExchangeDeployments parameter specifies whether multiple Exchange deployments exist. Valid values are:

• $true: Exchange is deployed in more than one Active Directory forest, and the forests are connected. The list of authoritative accepted domains for the source forest is written to the Autodiscover service connection point object. Outlook clients use this object to select the most appropriate forest to search for the Autodiscover service.
• $False: Multiple Exchange deployments aren't used. This is the default value.

The PreferredSourceFqdn parameter specifies the FQDN of the Active Directory domain for the Autodiscover pointer service connection point object.

The SourceForestCredential parameter specifies the credentials to use when connecting to the source forest.

A value for this parameter requires the Get-Credential cmdlet. To pause this command and receive a prompt for credentials, use the value (Get-Credential). Or, before you run this command, store the credentials in a variable (for example, $cred = Get-Credential) and then use the variable name ($cred) for this parameter. For more information, see Get-Credential.

The TargetForestCredential parameter specifies the credentials to use to connect to the target forest.

A value for this parameter requires the Get-Credential cmdlet. To pause this command and receive a prompt for credentials, use the value (Get-Credential). Or, before you run this command, store the credentials in a variable (for example, $cred = Get-Credential) and then use the variable name ($cred) for this parameter. For more information, see Get-Credential.

The TargetForestDomainController parameter specifies the forest or domain controller that you want to export the Autodiscover configuration to.

If the target domain controller requires signing, you'll get the error: "A more secure authentication method is required for this server". Domain controllers that require signing aren't supported.

The WhatIf switch simulates the actions of the command. You can use this switch to view the changes that would occur without actually applying those changes. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.
