Description

The Remove-CMBoundary cmdlet removes a boundary from Configuration Manager.

In Configuration Manager, a boundary is an intranet location that contains one or more devices that you can manage. A boundary can be an IP subnet, Active Directory site name, IPv6 prefix, or an IP address range.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a boundary that is specified by its ID

PS XYZ:\> Remove-CMBoundary -Id "16777223"

This command removes the boundary that has an identifier of 16777223. Because the Force parameter is not specified, you must confirm the action before it is performed.

Example 2: Remove a boundary by using an InputObject

PS XYZ:\> $BoundaryObj = Get-CMBoundary -Id "16777223"
PS XYZ:\>
Remove-Boundary -InputObject $BoundaryObj

In this example, the first command uses the Get-CMBoundary cmdlet to get a boundary that has the ID of 16777223, and inserts it into the input object $BoundaryObj.

The second command identifies the boundary by using the input object $BoundaryObj and then removes the boundary. Because the Force parameter is not specified, you must confirm the action before it is performed.
