Get-UalDns

Get-UalDns

Gets UAL records for a DNS server.

Syntax

Parameter Set: ByName
Get-UalDns [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-HostName <String[]> ] [-IPAddress <String[]> ] [-LastSeen <DateTime[]> ] [-ProductName <String[]> ] [-RoleGuid <String[]> ] [-RoleName <String[]> ] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Get-UalDns cmdlet gets User Access Logging (UAL) records for a Domain Name System (DNS) server. Use this cmdlet only for a DNS server. Use the CimSession parameter to run the cmdlet on a remote DNS server.

UAL logs DNS name requests directed to DNS servers. UAL gets this information from a DNS server only once a day.

For each client that accesses a service on a DNS server, this cmdlet returns a record that specifies the host name and the IP address of the requester. The record also includes the server role that the client requested and the name of the server product, along with the time of the most recent DNS name request from the client.

You can specify parameter values to narrow the records that this cmdlet returns. For instance, you can get records for only a specified IP address.

For more information about UAL, see the User Access Logging Overview topic in the TechNet library at https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh849634.aspx.

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.

-HostName<String[]>

Specifies an array of names for clients that request a service.

-IPAddress<String[]>

Specifies an array of IP addresses for clients that request a service.

-LastSeen<DateTime[]>

Specifies an array of dates, as DateTime objects. A time represents when the client accessed the service for the most recent time.

-ProductName<String[]>

Specifies an array of names of products. The installed role or specific product in the request is a component of this product.

-RoleGuid<String[]>

Specifies an array of GUIDs for roles that clients access.

-RoleName<String[]>

Specifies an array of names for roles that clients access.

-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.
