Synopsis
Adds an IPv6 vendor or user class to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service.
Description
The Add-DhcpServerv6Class cmdlet adds an IPv6 vendor or user class to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service.
The VendorId parameter needs to be specified if a vendor class is being added, but should not be specified for a user class.
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.
