Add-DhcpServerv6Scope

Add-DhcpServerv6Scope is accessible with the help of DHCPServer module. To configure DHCPServer, go through this link.

Synopsis

Adds an IPv6 scope to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service with the specified parameters.

Description

The Add-DhcpServerv6Scope cmdlet adds an IPv6 scope to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service with the specified parameters.

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.

-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.

-ComputerName

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

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

-Description

Specifies the description associated with the scope.

-Name

Specifies the name associated with the scope.

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

-Preference

Specifies the value for the preference field to be used by the DHCP server service while responding to clients in this subnet. The acceptable values for this parameter are: 0 through 255. The default value is 0.

-PreferredLifetime

Specifies the preferred life time of the IPv6 address leased by the DHCP server service. The default value is 8 days.

This parameter value should be same or less than the ValidLifeTime parameter value.

-Prefix

Specifies the IPv6 prefix of the scope that is added.

-State

Specifies the state of the scope. The acceptable values for this parameter are: Enabled and Disabled.

-T1

Specifies the lease renewal time. The default value is 4 days. The DHCP client is expected to use a unicast message to renew the lease at the time specified by this parameter value from the same DHCP server service from which DHCP client had at first obtained the lease.

This parameter value should be less than the T2 and PreferredLifetime parameter values.

-T2

Specifies the lease rebind time. The default value is 6.4 days. The DHCP client is expected to use a multi-cast message to renew the lease at the time equal to this parameter value from any DHCP server service if the renewal attempt at time specified by the T1 parameter fails.

This parameter value should be larger than the T1 parameter value and less than the PreferredLifetime parameter value.

-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.

-ValidLifeTime

Specifies the valid life time of the IPv6 address leased by the DHCP server service. The default value is 12 days.

This parameter value should be same or larger than the PreferredLifetime parameter value.

-WhatIf

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

Syntax

Add-DhcpServerv6Scope [-ValidLifeTime <TimeSpan>] [-ComputerName <String>] [-Prefix] <IPAddress> [-Name] <String> [-Description <String>] [-State <String>] [-Preference <UInt16>] [-PreferredLifetime <TimeSpan>] [-T1 <TimeSpan>] [-T2 <TimeSpan>] [-PassThru] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

————EXAMPLE 1————
PS C:>Add-DhcpServerv6Scope -Prefix 2406:7400:73:932f:d9b9:: -Name “IPv6 Second Floor Network”
The above command adds a DHCPv6 scope with subnet prefix 2406:7400:73:932f:d9b9:: and specified scope name to the DHCP server running on local computer.

————EXAMPLE 2————
PS C:>Add-DhcpServerv6Scope -ComputerName dhcpsrv.TOSSolution.com -Prefix 2406:7400:73:932f:d9b9:: -Name “IPv6 Second Floor Network” -PreferredLifeTime 5.00:00:00 -ValidLifeTime 8.00:00:00 -State Inactive
This example adds an inactive DHCPv6 scope with the subnet prefix 2406:7400:73:932f:d9b9::, specifies the scope name, sets the preferred lifetime to 5 days, and sets the valid lifetime to 8 days to the DHCP server service running on the computer nameddhcpsrv.TOSSolution.com.
