Syntax

Get-IpamDnsResourceRecord
   [-ZoneName] <String[]>
   [[-RecordName] <String[]>]
   [[-RecordType] <DnsResourceRecordType[]>]
   [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
   [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
   [-AsJob]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-IpamDnsResourceRecord cmdlet gets Domain Name System (DNS) resource records from IP Address Management (IPAM) server database. Resource records are used to define both the structure and the content of a DNS namespace. Different DNS elements, such as, a host, a mail exchanger, and a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, will have different types of resource records.

Examples

Example 1: Get information about all the resource records for a zone

PS C:\> Get-IpamDnsResourceRecord -ZoneName "northamerica.contoso.com"

This command gets all the DNS resource records for the zone named northamerica.contoso.com.

Example 2: Get information about one type of resource record

PS C:\> Get-IpamDnsResourceRecord -ZoneName "northamerica.contoso.com" -RecordType "AAAA"

This command gets only the IPv6 DNS resource records of record type AAAA for the zone named northamerica.contoso.com.

Required Parameters

-ZoneName

Specifies the name of the DNS zone that this cmdlet gets resource records from.

Type: String[]
Position: 1
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
-RecordName

Specifies the name of the resource record that this cmdlet gets. For example:this command returns the resource record with the name host1:

-RecordName "host1"

``

Type: String[]
Position: 2
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: False
-RecordType

Specifies the type of DNS resource records that this cmdlet gets.

The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • A. Address record. Specifies an IPv4 address that is typically used for a host computer.
  • AAAA. IPv6 address record. Specifies an IPv6 address that is typically used for a host computer.
  • PTR. Pointer record. Specifies a canonical name that is typically used for reverse DNS lookups.
  • SOA. Start of authority record. Specifies authoritative information about a DNS zone.
  • NS. Name server record. Specifies an authoritative name server for a DNS zone.
  • CNAME. Canonical name record that points to a DNS alias.
  • DNAME. Delegation name record. Points to a DNS alias and its subnames. This differs from a CNAME record, which points only to an exact name.
  • MX. Mail exchange record. Maps a domain name to the mail transfer agents for that domain.
  • SRV. Service location record. Specifies the location of services within the domain.
  • TXT. Text record. Maintains descriptive text.
  • AFSDB. AFS database record. Specifies the location of a database in an Andrew File System cell.
  • ATMA. Asynchronous Transfer Mode Address (ATMA) resource record. Maps a DNS domain name in the owner field to an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) address referenced in the atm_address field.
  • DHCID. DHCP identifier record. Points to a DHCP server.
  • HINFO. System information record. Specifies the host or server's operating system and CPU type.
  • ISDN. Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) resource record. Maps a domain name to an ISDN telephone number.
  • RP. Responsible person record. Maintains information about the person responsible for a domain.
  • RT. Route through (RT) resource record. Provides an intermediate host binding for internal hosts that do not have a direct wide area network (WAN) or external network connection.
  • WINS. Windows Internet Name Service record.
  • WINSR. Windows Internet Name Service reverse-lookup record.
  • WKS. Well-known service (WKS) resource record. Describes the well-known TCP/IP services supported by a particular protocol on a specific IP address.
  • X25. X-25 resource record. Maps a domain name to a Public Switched Data Network (PSDN) address number.

For example:

-RecordType "CNAME"

Type: DnsResourceRecordType[]
Parameter Sets: A, AAAA, PTR, SOA, NS, CNAME, DNAME, MX, SRV, TXT, AFSDB, ATMA, DHCID, HINFO, ISDN, RP, RT, WINS, WINSR, WKS, X25
Position: 3
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
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

Outputs

This cmdlet returns an instance of the IpamDnsResourceRecord object.
