NAME New-ADCentralAccessPolicy
SYNOPSIS
Creates a new central access policy in Active Directory containing a set of central access rules.
SYNTAX
New-ADCentralAccessPolicy [-Name] <String> [-AuthType {Negotiate | Basic}] [-Credential <PSCredential>]
[-Description <String>] [-Instance <ADCentralAccessPolicy>] [-PassThru] [-ProtectedFromAccidentalDeletion
<Boolean>] [-Server <String>] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The New-ADCentralAccessPolicy cmdlet creates a new central access policy in Active Directory. A central access
policy in Active Directory contains a set of central access rules.
PARAMETERS
-AuthType <ADAuthType>
Specifies the authentication method to use. Possible values for this parameter include:
Negotiate or 0
Basic or 1
The default authentication method is Negotiate.
A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection is required for the Basic authentication method.
The following example shows how to set this parameter to Basic.
-AuthType Basic
Required? false
Position? named
Default value Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.AuthType.Negotiate
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Credential <PSCredential>
Specifies the user account credentials to use to perform this task. The default credentials are the
credentials of the currently logged on user unless the cmdlet is run from an Active Directory PowerShell
provider drive. If the cmdlet is run from such a provider drive, the account associated with the drive is the
default.
To specify this parameter, you can type a user name, such as "User1" or "Domain01\\User01" or you can specify a
PSCredential object. If you specify a user name for this parameter, the cmdlet prompts for a password.
You can also create a PSCredential object by using a script or by using the Get-Credential cmdlet. You can
then set the Credential parameter to the PSCredential object The following example shows how to create
credentials.
$AdminCredentials = Get-Credential "Domain01\\User01"
The following shows how to set the Credential parameter to these credentials.
-Credential $AdminCredentials
If the acting credentials do not have directory-level permission to perform the task, Active Directory
PowerShell returns a terminating error.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Description <String>
Specifies a description of the object. This parameter sets the value of the Description property for the
object. The LDAP Display Name (ldapDisplayName) for this property is "description".
The following example shows how to set this parameter to a sample description.
-Description "Description of the object"
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Instance <ADCentralAccessPolicy>
Specifies an instance of an Active Directory object to use as a template for a new Active Directory object.
You can use an instance of an existing Active Directory object as a template or you can construct a new Active
Directory object by using the Windows PowerShell command line or by using a script. The following examples
show how to use these two methods to create a new Active Directory object.
Method 1: Use an existing Active Directory object as a template for a new object. To retrieve an instance of
an existing Active Directory object, use a cmdlet such as Get-ADObject. Then provide this object to the
Instance parameter of the New-ADObject cmdlet to create a new Active Directory object. You can override
property values of the new object by setting the appropriate parameters.
$objectInstance = Get-ADObject -Identity saraDavisDesktop
New-ADObject -Name "ellenAdamsDesktop" -Instance $ObjectInstance -Type "computer"
Method 2: Create a new ADObject and set the property values by using the Windows PowerShell command line
interface. Then pass this object to the Instance parameter of the New-ADObject cmdlet to create the new Active
Directory object.
$objectInstance = new-object Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADObject $objectInstance.Description =
"Ellen Adams New Computer" New-ADObject -Name ellenAdamsDesktop -Instance $ObjectInstance -Type computer
Note: Specified attributes are not validated, so attempting to set attributes that do not exist or cannot be
set will raise an error.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Name <String>
Specifies the name of the object. This parameter sets the Name property of the Active Directory object. The
LDAP Display Name (ldapDisplayName) of this property is "name".
The following example shows how to set this parameter to a name string.
-Name "Finance Policy"
Required? true
Position? 2
Default value
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PassThru [<SwitchParameter>]
Returns the new or modified object. By default (i.e. if -PassThru is not specified), this cmdlet does not
generate any output.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ProtectedFromAccidentalDeletion <Boolean>
Specifies whether to prevent the object from being deleted. When this property is set to true, you cannot
delete the corresponding object without changing the value of the property. Possible values for this parameter
include:
$false or 0
$true or 1
The following example shows how to set this parameter to true.
-ProtectedFromAccidentalDeletion $true
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Server <String>
Specifies the Active Directory Domain Services instance to connect to, by providing one of the following
values for a corresponding domain name or directory server. The service may be any of the following: Active
Directory Lightweight Domain Services, Active Directory Domain Services or Active Directory Snapshot instance.
Domain name values:
Fully qualified domain name
Examples: corp.contoso.com
NetBIOS name
Example: CORP
Directory server values:
Fully qualified directory server name
Example: corp-DC12.corp.contoso.com
NetBIOS name
Example: corp-DC12
Fully qualified directory server name and port
Example: corp-DC12.corp.contoso.com:3268
The default value for the Server parameter is determined by one of the following methods in the order that
they are listed:
-By using Server value from objects passed through the pipeline.
-By using the server information associated with the Active Directory PowerShell provider drive, when running
under that drive.
-By using the domain of the computer running Powershell.
The following example shows how to specify a full qualified domain name as the parameter value.
-Server "corp.contoso.com"
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value false
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value false
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
None or Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADCentralAccessPolicy
An Active Directory object that is a template for the new object is received by the Instance parameter.
OUTPUTS
None or Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADCentralAccessPolicy
Returns the new central access policy object when the PassThru parameter is specified. By default, this cmdlet
does not generate any output.
NOTES
This cmdlet does not work with an Active Directory Snapshot.
This cmdlet does not work with a read-only domain controller.

should have write access. The rule allows an exception for members of the FinanceException group. This group will
have read access.
