Synopsis

Returns a specific Active Directory replication connection or a set of AD replication connection objects based on a specified filter.

Description

The Get-ADReplicationConnection cmdlet returns a specific Active Directory replication connection or a set of AD replication connection objects based on a specified filter. Connections are used to enable domain controllers to replicate with each other. A connection defines a one-way, inbound route from one domain controller, the source, to another domain controller, the destination. The Kerberos consistency checker (KCC) reuses existing connections where it can, deletes unused connections, and creates new connections if none exist that meet the current need.

Parameters 

 -AuthType 
         Specifies the authentication method to use. Possible values for this parameter include:

   Required?                    false
    Position?                    named
    Default value                Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.AuthType.Negotiate
    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-Credential <PSCredential>
    Specifies the user account credentials to use to perform this task. The default credentials are the credentials of the currently logged on user unless the cmdlet is run from an Active Directory PowerShell provider drive. If the cmdlet is run from such a provider drive, the account associated with the drive is the default.

    Required?                    false

    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-Filter <String>
    Specifies a query string that retrieves Active Directory objects. This string uses the PowerShell Expression Language syntax. The PowerShell Expression Language syntax provides rich type-conversion support for value types received by the Filter parameter. The syntax uses an in-order representation, which means that the operator is placed between the operand and the value. For more information about the Filter parameter, see about_ActiveDirectory_Filter.

    Required?                    false
    Position?                    named

    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-Identity <ADReplicationConnection>
    Specifies an Active Directory object by providing one of the following property values. The identifier in parentheses is the LDAP display name for the attribute.

    Required?                    true
    Position?                    1
    Default value                
    Accept pipeline input?       True (ByValue)

    Accept wildcard characters?  false
