Applies to: Exchange Server 2007 SP1, Exchange Server 2007 SP2, Exchange Server 2007 SP3

Use the Get-ForeignConnector cmdlet to view the configuration information for a Foreign connector on a computer that is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and that has the Hub Transport server role installed. A Foreign connector uses a Drop directory on a Hub Transport server to send messages to a local messaging server that doesn't use the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) as its primary transport mechanism. These messaging servers are known as foreign gateway servers. Third-party fax gateway servers are examples of foreign gateway servers. The address spaces that are assigned to a Foreign connector can be SMTP or non-SMTP.

Syntax

Get-ForeignConnector [-Identity <ForeignConnectorIdParameter>] [-DomainController <Fqdn>]

Detailed Description

The Get-ForeignConnector cmdlet retrieves the configuration information for a Foreign connector. You can use the Identity parameter to retrieve the configuration information for a specific Foreign connector. To retrieve the configuration information for all Foreign connectors, do not include the Identity parameter in the command.

To run the Get-ForeignConnector cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the Exchange View-Only Administrators role.
