NAME Get-DnsClientGlobalSetting
SYNOPSIS
Retrieves global DNS client settings like the suffix search list.
SYNTAX
Get-DnsClientGlobalSetting [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The Get-DnsClientGlobalSetting cmdlet retrieves DNS client settings that are global, that are not associated with a specific interface. The
settings affect the behavior of the DNS client across all of the interfaces.
PARAMETERS
-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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
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
OUTPUTS
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root\\StandardCimv2\\MSFT_DNSClientGlobalSetting
The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects.
The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.
Example 1: Get global DNS client settings
PS C:\\>Get-DnsClientGlobalSetting
UseSuffixSearchList : True
SuffixSearchList : {corp.contoso.com, na.corp.contoso.com}
UseDevolution : True
DevolutionLevel : 0
This example gets all of the global DNS client settings.
Example 2: Get connection-specific suffixes
PS C:\\>$dnsCGSetting = Get-DnsClientGlobalSetting
PS C:\\> $dnsCGSetting.SuffixSearchList
corp.contoso.com
na.corp.contoso.com
This example gets the connection-specific suffixes. The first item in the list is the primary DNS suffix, if configured.
