.SYNOPSIS Enables the Dynamic DNS update functionality for an Axis device. .DESCRIPTION The Enable-AxisDNSUpdate function configures the Axis device to periodically send DNS updates to the DNS server. This allows the device to be accessed by a hostname instead of an IP address. The function also forces a DNS update to ensure the hostname is immediately available though on older models this may not be supported. .PARAMETER Device The hostname or IP address of the Axis device. .PARAMETER Hostname The hostname to be updated in the DNS. If no hostname is provided, the serail number of the device is used in the following format: axis-<SerialNumber>.<DNS Suffix> .EXAMPLE Enable-AxisDNSUpdate -Device "192.168.1.100" -Hostname "axis-camera.example.com" Setting Configuration...OK! Forcing DNS Update...OK! #> function Enable-AxisDNSUpdate { [cmdletbinding()] Param( [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [String]$Device, [Parameter(Mandatory=$false)] [String]$Hostname ) if(!$Hostname) { $NewHostName = "axis-$((Get-AxisDeviceInfo -Device $Device).SerialNumber).$($Config.DNSSuffix)" } else { $NewHostName = $Hostname } #Update Configuration $Param = @{ 'Network.DNSUpdate.DNSName' = $NewHostname 'Network.DNSUpdate.Enabled' = 'yes' } Write-Host "$($Device): Setting Configuration..." -NoNewline Try { Update-AxisParameter -Device $Device -ParameterSet $Param Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "OK!" } Catch { Write-Host -ForegroundColor Red "Failed!"
