Clear-DnsClientCache

Clear-DnsClientCache is accessible with the help of DnsClient module. To configure DnsClient, go through this link.

Synopsis

Clears the contents of the DNS client cache.

Description

The Clear-DnsClientCache cmdlet deletes all the contents of the DNS client cache. Running this cmdlet is equivalent to running ipconfig /flushdns.

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.
