Detailed Description
The Get-DfsnRoot cmdlet gets configuration settings for Distributed File System (DFS) namespaces. You can specify DFS namespaces by using a standalone or domain-based namespace path, by using a server, or by using a domain. Use this cmdlet without parameters to see information on all DFS namespaces. You can make changes to DFS settings by using the Set-DfsnRoot cmdlet.
For more information about DFS namespaces, see Overview of DFS Namespaces (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc730736) on TechNet.
