Examples
Example 1: Add a root hint to a DNS server by using IP address
PS C:\> Add-DnsServerRootHint -NameServer "root.contoso.com" -IPAddress 172.23.90.128This command adds the IP address 172.23.90.128 for the name server root.contoso.com to the list of root hints on the local DNS server.
Example 2: Add a root hint to a DNS server by using an IPv6 address
PS C:\>Add-DnsServerRootHint -NameServer "root.contoso.com" -IPAddress 2001:4898:7020:f100:458f:e6a2:fcaf:698cThis command adds the IPv6 address 2001:4898:7020:f100:458f:e6a2:fcaf:698c for the name server root.contoso.com to the list of root hints on the local DNS server.
