Description

The Add-DnsServerSecondaryZone cmdlet adds a specified secondary zone on a Domain Name System (DNS) server. You can create either a forward lookup zone or a reverse lookup zone. To create a reverse lookup zone, specify a network ID by using the NetworkID parameter, or specify a full reverse lookup zone name by using the Name parameter.

Examples

Example 1: Add a secondary DNS server zone

PS C:\> Add-DnsServerSecondaryZone -Name "western.contoso.com" -ZoneFile "western.contoso.com.dns" -MasterServers 172.23.90.124

This command creates a secondary DNS zone named western.contoso.com with the specified master server. This zone is file-backed.

Example 2: Create secondary zones

PS C:\>Get-DnsServerZone -ComputerName win-olpn33s5q3m.mytest.contoso.com | where {("Primary" -eq $_.ZoneType) -and ($false -eq $_.IsAutoCreated) -and ("TrustAnchors" -ne $_.ZoneName)} | %{ $_ | Add-DnsServerSecondaryZone -MasterServers 172.23.90.136  -ZoneFile "$($_.ZoneName).dns"}

This example gets primary zones from the server win-olpn33s5q3m.mytest.contoso.com and creates secondary zones (except TrustAnchors and AutoCreated zones) on the local system.

Parameters

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-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-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227967 or Get-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227966 cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ComputerName

Specifies a DNS server. If you do not specify this parameter, the command runs on the local system. You can specify an IP address or any value that resolves to an IP address, such as a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), host name, or NETBIOS name.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-LoadExisting

Loads an existing file for the zone. Otherwise, the cmdlet creates default zone records automatically. This switch is relevant only for file-backed zones.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MasterServers

Specifies an array of IP addresses of the master servers of the zone. You can use both IPv4 and IPv6.

Type:IPAddress[]
Position:4
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies a name of a zone.

Type:String
Position:2
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-NetworkId

Specifies the network ID and prefix for the secondary zone. Enter an IP address with prefix length in this format: 11.1.1/24 or 1234::/64.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

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.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
