Description

The Get-IpamDhcpServer cmdlet returns information about the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers in the IP Address Management (IPAM) server database. DHCP servers lease IP addresses to client devices.

Examples

Example 1: Get information about all DHCP servers

PS C:\> Get-IpamDhcpServer

This command returns information about all the DHCP servers in the IPAM database.

Example 2: Get information about a single DHCP server

PS C:\> Get-IpamDhcpServer -ServerFqdn "dhcp.contoso.com"

This command returns information for a single IPAM DHCP server named dhcp.contoso.com.

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.

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.
