NAME Enable-DAManualEntryPointSelection



SYNOPSIS

Allows a user to manually choose which DirectAccess entry point to use for connectivity.





SYNTAX

Enable-DAManualEntryPointSelection [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] -EntryPointName <String> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf]

[<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

Enable-DAManualEntryPointSelection allows a user to manually choose which DirectAccess entry point to use for connectivity. This cmdlet succeeds

only when the client computer is outside of the corporate network perimeter, and DirectAccess is deployed.



Computers configured for multisite DirectAccess automatically pick the best entry point to use for connectivity. A user might want to override the

entry point that is automatically selected; for example, to help troubleshoot network connectivity. This cmdlet allows a user to manually choose a

DirectAccess entry point.



You can prevent a user from overriding the automatic selection by using Group Policy. For more information about using Group Policy to restrict

automatic selection changes, see Get-DAClientExperienceConfiguration.





PARAMETERS

-AsJob [<SwitchParameter>]

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.
