Parameters

HostNameAlias [in]

Specifies the FQDN of the host to be aliased. This is the canonical name of the host.

ZoneName [in]

Specifies the name of a DNS zone.

TimeToLive [in]

Specifies the Time to Live (TTL) value, in seconds, for a resource record. Other DNS servers use this length of time to determine how long to cache a record.

AllowUpdateAny [in]

Indicates that any authenticated user can update a resource record that has the same owner name.

Name [in]

Specifies the alias for the CNAME record.

ComputerName [in]

Specifies a DNS server. If you do not specify this parameter, the command runs on the local system. You can specify an IP address or any value that resolves to an IP address, such as a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), host name, or NETBIOS name.

AgeRecord [in]

Indicates that the DNS server uses a time stamp for the resource record that this method adds. A DNS server can scavenge resource records that have become stale based on a time stamp.

CName [in]

If specified, creates a DNS Server Resource Record CNAME.

PassThru [in]

true to return the object that was modified by the method. By default, this method does not generate any output.
