CSV file.Ĭreate a text file NewDnsRecords.txt with the names and IP addresses you want to add to DNS. You can add them one-by-one using the Add-DnsServerResourceRecordA cmdlet, but it is easier to add A records in bulk from a. Suppose, you want to create multiple A records at a time in the specific DNS Forward Lookup Zone.

Remove-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName “-addr.arpa” -RRType “PTR” -Name “33” How to Create Multiple A and PTR DNS Records from a. To remove a PTR record from a Reverse Lookup Zone: Remove-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName woshub.local -RRType A -Name ber-rds1 –Force Remove-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName woshub.local -RRType CName -Name Ber-RDSFarm To remove DNS records, the Remove-DnsServerResourceRecord cmdlet is used.įor example, to remove a CNAME record, run the command: Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName -RRType A | Where-Object HostName -like "*rds*"

For example, to display the list of A records containing rds phrase in their hostnames: You can also use filters by any DNS record parameters using Where-Object. Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ComputerName DC01 -ZoneName -RRType CNAME Let’s display the list of CNAME records in the specified DNS zone:

You can display the list of DNS records of the same type by using the –RRType parameter. Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -Name ber-rds1 -ZoneName It is the opposite of both A record for IPv4 address and an AAAA record for IPv6 address, referred to as 'forward DNS' records. You can get the associated domain name or hostname using the IP address. Make sure that the IP address of the A record has changed: PTR records referred to as 'reverse DNS' records are used in Reverse IP lookup. Set-DnsServerResourceRecord -NewInputObject $NewADNS -OldInputObject $OldADNS -ZoneName -ComputerName dc01 $4Address = ::parse('192.168.100.133')Ĭhange the IP address of the A record using the Set-DnsServerResourceRecord cmdlet: Then change the IPV4Address property of the $NewADNS object: $OldADNS = get-DnsServerResourceRecord -Name ber-rds1 -ZoneName -ComputerName dc01

$NewADNS = get-DnsServerResourceRecord -Name ber-rds1 -ZoneName -ComputerName dc01 To change (update) the IP address in the A record, you will have to apply quite a complex method since you cannot change an IP address of a DNS record directly: To add an alias ( CNAME) for the specific A record, run this command:Īdd-DnsServerResourceRecordCName -ZoneName -Name Ber-RDSFarm -HostNameAlias To add a PTR record to the Reverse Lookup Zone, you can add –CreatePtr parameter to the previous command or create the pointer manually using the Add-DNSServerResourceRecordPTR cmdlet:Īdd-DNSServerResourceRecordPTR -ZoneName -addr.arpa -Name 33 -PTRDomainName
