Add-DhcpServerv4Policy is accessible with the help of DHCPServer module. To configure DHCPServer, go through this link.
Synopsis
Adds a new policy either at the server level or at the scope level.
Description
The Add-DhcpServerv4Policy cmdlet adds a new policy either at the server level or at the scope level. The policy name must be unique at the level, either server or specific scope, where the policy is added and should have at least one condition as specified by the CircuitId, ClientId, Fqdn, MACAddress, RelayAgent, RemoteId, SubscriberId, UserClass, or VendorClass parameter.
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.

Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |

-CircuitId
Specifies the comparator to use and the values with which to compare the circuit id sub-option. The first element is the comparator, either EQ or NE, followed by a single value.
If the last character in a value is an asterisk, then the subsequent characters are treated as wildcard characters for the comparison. If the first character in a value-element is an asterisk, the preceding characters are treated as wildcard characters for comparison.
The value can again be followed by another comparator, either EQ or NE, which is followed by another value for comparison.
The input format for the value is a hexadecimal string with or without hyphen separation.
Type: | String[] |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Accept pipeline input: | True (ByPropertyName) |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-ClientId

If the last character in a value is an asterisk, then the subsequent characters are treated as wildcard characters for the comparison. If the first character in a value-element is an asterisk, the preceding characters are treated as wildcard characters for comparison.
The values can again be followed by another comparator, either EQ or NE, which is followed by another set of values for comparison.
The input format is a hexadecimal string with or without hyphen separation. For example: EQ, 00-0C-29-00-E0-6B, 00-0C-29-00-E0*
.
The output format is a hexadecimal string with hyphen separation.
The values that follow the EQ operator are treated as multiple assertions which are logically combined (OR’d).
