[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Set-DnsClient cmdlet sets the interface-specific DNS client configurations on the computer.
Examples
Example 1: Set the connection-specific suffix
PS C:\> Set-DnsClient -InterfaceIndex 12 -ConnectionSpecificSuffix "corp.contoso.com"This example sets the connection-specific suffix on an interface with index 12.
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.

-ConnectionSpecificSuffix
Specifies the connection-specific suffixes to append. This parameter value is a per-connection DNS suffix to append to the computer name to construct a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). This FQDN is used as the host name for name resolution by the DNS client.
| Type: | String |
| Aliases: | Suffix |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |

Specifies the input to this cmdlet. You can use this parameter, or you can pipe the input to this cmdlet.
| Type: | CimInstance[] |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | True |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-InterfaceAlias
Specifies the friendly name of the interface.
| Type: | String[] |
| Position: | 0 |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-InterfaceIndex
Specifies the index number of the interface.
| Type: | UInt32[] |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | True |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-PassThru
Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| 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.
| Type: | Int32 |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
