This cmdlet is available or effective only on Edge Transport servers in on-premises Exchange.
Use the Test-IPAllowListProvider cmdlet to test IP Allow list providers on Edge Transport servers.
For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.
Syntax
Test-IPAllowListProvider
[-Identity] <IPAllowListProviderIdParameter>
-IPAddress <IPAddress>
[-Confirm]
[-DomainController <Fqdn>]
[-Server <ServerIdParameter>]
[-WhatIf]
[<CommonParameters>] Description
On Edge Transport servers, the Test-IPAllowListProvider cmdlet checks connectivity to the specified allow list provider and then issues a lookup request to the allow list provider.
On Edge Transport servers, you need to be a member of the local Administrators group to run this cmdlet.
Examples
Example 1
Test-IPAllowListProvider Contoso.com -IPAddress 192.168.0.1This example tests the existing IP Allow list provider named Contoso,com by sending a lookup request to that provider for the IP address 192.168.0.1.
Parameters
-Confirm
The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.
- Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax:
-Confirm:$false. - Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

-DomainController
The DomainController parameter specifies the domain controller that's used by this cmdlet to read data from or write data to Active Directory. You identify the domain controller by its fully qualified domain name (FQDN). For example, dc01.contoso.com.
The DomainController parameter isn't supported on Edge Transport servers. An Edge Transport server uses the local instance of Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) to read and write data.

| Applies to: | Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019 |
-Server
The Server parameter specifies the Exchange server where you want to run this command. You can use any value that uniquely identifies the server. For example:
- Name
- FQDN
- Distinguished name (DN)
- Exchange Legacy DN
If you don't use this parameter, the command is run on the local server.
You can't use this parameter to configure other Edge Transport servers remotely.
