An older thread discussed the usage of Set-DNSServerSetting:
The command help is unfortunately also not very helpful:
https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-powershell-docs/blob/master/docset/winserver2019-ps/dnsserver/Set-DnsServerSetting.md
After figuring out how the command can be used, it's simple and straight forward. It would be great if MS adds better examples.
Create a cim Instance to hold the values which should be set:
$DNSSetting = New-CimInstance -Namespace root/Microsoft/Windows/Dns -ClassName DnsServerSetting
-Property @{
LocalNetPriority =$True
LocalNetPriorityMask = [uint32]0x0000ffff
} -ClientOnlyPass it to the Set-DNSServerSetting
Set-DnsServerSetting $DNSSetting
Alternatively you can pipe the CimInstance directly:
New-CimInstance -Namespace root/Microsoft/Windows/Dns -ClassName DnsServerSetting -Property @{ LocalNetPriority =$True; LocalNetPriorityMask = [uint32]0x0000ffff } -ClientOnly | Set-DnsServerSetting
Important: you need to use the correct type (ie [int] is not eq [uint32]). To get all possible types, run the following command:
Get-DnsServerSetting -All | gm
