Description

The Add-DhcpServerv4ExclusionRange cmdlet adds a range of excluded IP addresses for an IPv4 scope. The excluded IP addresses are not leased out by the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service to any DHCP client. The only exception to this is reservation. If an IP address is reserved, the same IP address is leased to the designated client even if it falls in the exclusion range.

Examples

Example 1: Exclude an IP address range on the local computer

PS C:\> Add-Dhcpserverv4ExclusionRange -ScopeId 10.1.1.0 -StartRange 10.1.1.1 -EndRange 10.1.1.10

This command excludes the IP address range from 10.1.1.1 through 10.1.1.10 from the scope 10.1.1.0 on the DHCP server service that runs on the local computer.

Example 2: Exclude an IP address on a remote computer

PS C:\> Add-Dhcpserverv4ExclusionRange -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -ScopeId 10.1.1.0 -StartRange 10.1.1.1 -EndRange 10.1.1.1

This example excludes the IP address 10.1.1.1 from the scope 10.1.1.0 on the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com.

Required Parameters

Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: False
-ScopeId

Specifies the identifier (ID) of the IPv4 scope from which the IP addresses are excluded.

Type: IPAddress
Position: 1
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: False
-StartRange

Specifies the starting IP address of the range that is excluded.

Type: IPAddress
Position: 2
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: False

Optional Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs .

Type: SwitchParameter
Position: Named
Default value: None
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-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type: CimSession[]
Aliases: Session
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-ComputerName

Specifies the DNS name, or IPv4 or IPv6 address, of the target computer that runs the DHCP server service.

Type: String
Aliases: Cn
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type: SwitchParameter
Aliases: cf
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
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
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
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-WhatIf

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

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