Detailed Description
The Get-TransportRule cmdlet lets you view the configuration of transport rules that are defined on a Hub Transport server or an Edge Transport server. If you run this command on a Hub Transport server, all transport rules that are configured in the organization, except for rules that are configured on an Edge Transport server, will be displayed. If you run this command on an Edge Transport server, only the rules that are configured on the local Edge Transport server will be displayed.
For information about how to configure transport rules that run against e-mail messages in an Exchange 2007 organization, see Set-TransportRule.
For information about the Transport Rules agent, see Overview of Transport Rules.

To run the Get-TransportRule cmdlet on a computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed, you must log on by using an account that is a member of the local Administrators group on that computer.
