Example 2: Get all DHCPv4 option definitions

PS C:\> Get-DhcpServerv4OptionDefinition -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -All

This example gets all of the DHCPv4 option definitions including vendor specific option definition present on the DHCP server service.

Example 3: Get DHCPv4 option definition for an option

PS C:\> Get-DhcpServerv4OptionDefinition -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -OptionId 23

This example gets the DHCPv4 option definition for the specified option.

Example 4: Get all DHCPv4 option definitions for a vendor class

Parameters

-All

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
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.

Type:SwitchParameter

Default value:None
Required:False

-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.

Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-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.
