Description

The Add-DhcpServerv6ExclusionRange cmdlet sets the range of IPv6 addresses to exclude from an IPv6 scope. The IP addresses from this range is not be leased out by the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service.

Examples

Example 1: Exclude addresses on the local computer

PS C:\> Add-DhcpServerv6ExclusionRange -Prefix 2001:4898:7020:1020:: -StartRange 2001:4898:7020:1020::1 -EndRange 2001:4898:7020:1020::10

This example excludes the IPv6 addresses from 2001:4898:7020:1020::1 to 2001:4898:7020:1020::10 from DHCPv6 scope 2001:4898:7020:1020:: on the DHCP server service that runs on the local computer.

Example 2: Exclude an address on a remote computer

PS C:\> Add-DhcpServerv6ExclusionRange -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -Prefix 2001:4898:7020:1020:: -StartRange 2001:4898:7020:1020::1 -EndRange 2001:4898:7020:1020::1

This example excludes the IPv6 address 2001:4898:7020:1020::1 from the DHCPv6 scope 2001:4898:7020:1020:: on the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.

-EndRange

Specifies the ending IP address in exclusion range, as a string formatted as an IPv6 address.

Type:IPAddress
Position:3
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PassThru

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

-ThrottleLimit

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.
