Parameters

-AllUserConnection

Indicates that the VPN connection being modified is in the global phone book.

Type:SwitchParameter

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-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.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

-DestinationPrefix

Specifies the destination prefix of the route to add.

Type:String
Position:2
Default value:None
Required:True
