Hello,

I was wondering has anyone deactivated DHCP scopes using Powershell below? I'm just learning how to use Powershell and I know how to update Scope Options using Powershell but I was wondering can you Deactivate it using PowerShell? I would like to do many pulling from a list via a CSV file.

    Use Set-DhcpServerv4Scope and the -State parameter with a value of "InActive".

    Hello @Mike R ,

    To disable the created scope, use this command:

    Set-DhcpServerv4Scope -ComputerName DHCPServer -ScopeId 10.1.1.0 -State InActive

    To Remove the created scope from the DHCP server use this command

    Remove-DHCPServerv4Scope -ComputerName DHCPServer -ScopeId 10.1.1.0 -Force
