-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

-ExternalIPAddress

The ExternalIPAddress parameter specifies the IP address used in the Received message header field for every message that travels through the Edge server or the Transport service on a Mailbox server. The IP address in the Received header field is used for hop count and routing loop detection. The IP address specified by the ExternalIPAddress parameter overrides the external network adapter's actual IP address. Typically, you would want to set the value of the ExternalIPAddress parameter to match the value of your domain's public MX record. The default value of the ExternalIPAddress parameter is blank. This means the actual IP address of the external network adapter is used in the Received header field.

-InternalDNSAdapterGuid

The InternalDNSAdapterGuid parameter specifies the network adapter that has the DNS settings used for DNS lookups of servers that exist inside the Exchange organization. The concept of an internal network adapter and an external network adapter is only applicable in a multi-homed Exchange server environment. When no particular network adapter is specified as the network adapter for external DNS lookups, the value of the InternalDNSAdapterGuid parameter is 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000, and internal DNS lookups are performed by using the DNS settings of any available network adapter. You may enter the GUID of a specific network adapter to use for internal DNS lookups. The default value of the InternalDNSAdapterGuid parameter is 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000.

If the value of the InternalDNSAdapterEnabled parameter is set to $false, the value of the InternalDNSAdapterGuid parameter is ignored, and the list of DNS servers from the InternalDNSServers parameter is used.

-MessageTrackingLogMaxDirectorySize

The MessageTrackingLogMaxDirectorySize parameter specifies the maximum size of the message tracking log directory. When the maximum directory size is reached, the server deletes the oldest log files first.

The maximum size of the message tracking log directory is calculated as the total size of all log files that have the same name prefix. Other files that don't follow the name prefix convention aren't counted in the total directory size calculation. Renaming old log files or copying other files into the message tracking log directory could cause the directory to exceed its specified maximum size.

For Mailbox servers, the maximum size of the message tracking log directory isn't the specified maximum size because the message tracking log files generated by the Transport service and the Mailbox Transport service have different name prefixes. Message tracking log files for the Transport service or for Edge servers begin with the name prefix MSGTRK. Message tracking log files for the Mailbox Transport service begin with the name prefix MSGTRKM. For Mailbox servers, the maximum size of the message tracking log directory is two times the specified value.

The default value is 1000 MB.

When you enter a value, qualify the value with one of the following units:

  • B (bytes)

-UseDowngradedExchangeServerAuth

The UseDowngradedExchangeServerAuth parameter specifies whether the Generic Security Services application programming interface (GSSAPI) authentication method is used on connections where Transport Layer Security (TLS) is disabled.

Normally, TLS is required for connections between the Transport services on Mailbox servers in your organization. On TLS secured connections, Kerberos authentication is used by default. However, there may be scenarios where you need to disable TLS between specific Transport services in your organization. When you do that, you need to set this parameter to $true to provide an alternative authentication method. The default value is $false. You shouldn't set this value to $true unless it's absolutely required.

If you set this parameter to $true, you also need to create a specific Receive connector to service the non-TLS connections. This Receive connector must have remote IP address ranges specified to ensure that it's only used for non-TLS connections. You also must set the SuppressXAnonymousTls attribute of the Receive connector to $true.
