Get-DnsClientServerAddress
Get-DnsClientServerAddress is accessible with the help of DnsClient module. To configure DnsClient, go through this link.
Synopsis
Gets DNS server IP addresses from the TCP/IP properties on an interface.
Description
The Get-DnsClientServerAddress cmdlet gets one or more DNS server IP addresses associated with the interfaces on the computer.
Parameters
-AddressFamily
Specifies the address family. The acceptable values for this parameter are: IPv4 or IPv6.
| Type: | AddressFamily[] |
| Aliases: | Family |
| Accepted values: | IPv4, IPv6 |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-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.

-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.
| Type: | Int32 |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
