Exclude to enable DHCP. .PARAMETER Validate Write - boolean Requires that the DNS Server addresses be validated if they are updated. It will cause the resource to throw a 'A general error occurred that is not covered by a more specific error code.' error if set to True and specified DNS Servers are not accessible. .EXAMPLE Configure DNS Server for the Ethernet adapter Configuration Example { param ( [Parameter()] [System.String[]] $NodeName = 'localhost' ) Import-DscResource -Module xNetworking Node $NodeName { xDnsServerAddress DnsServerAddress { Address = '127.0.0.1' InterfaceAlias = 'Ethernet' AddressFamily = 'IPv4' Validate = $true } } } .EXAMPLE Configure primary and secondary DNS Server addresses on the Ethernet adapter Configuration Example { param ( [Parameter()] [System.String[]] $NodeName = 'localhost' ) Import-DscResource -Module xNetworking Node $NodeName { xDnsServerAddress DnsServerAddress { Address = '10.0.0.2','10.0.0.40' InterfaceAlias = 'Ethernet' AddressFamily = 'IPv4' Validate = $true } } } .EXAMPLE Enabling DHCP for the IP Address and DNS on the adapter with alias 'Ethernet'. Configuration Example { param ( [Parameter()] [System.String[]] $NodeName = 'localhost' ) Import-DscResource -Module xNetworking Node $NodeName { xDhcpClient EnableDhcpClient { State = 'Enabled' InterfaceAlias = 'Ethernet' AddressFamily = 'IPv4' } xDnsServerAddress EnableDhcpDNS { InterfaceAlias = 'Ethernet' AddressFamily = 'IPv4' } } } |
