.SYNOPSIS This function gets the original DL configuration for the on premises group using AD providers. .DESCRIPTION This function gets the original DL configuration for the on premises group using AD providers. .PARAMETER parameterSet These are the parameters that the GET will gather from AD for the DL. This should be the full map. .PARAMETER GroupSMTPAddress The mail attribute of the group to search. .PARAMETER GlobalCatalog The global catalog to utilize for the query. .PARAMETER ADCredential The credential utilized to connect to the global catalog server. .PARAMETER isValidTest Signifies if the function is being called to validate the existance of a recipient .OUTPUTS Returns the DL configuration from the LDAP / AD call to the calling function. .EXAMPLE Get-ADObjectConfiguration -groupSMTPAddress $address -DN $DN -globalCatalogServer $GC -adCredential $cred -parameterSet $parameterArray #> Function Get-ADObjectConfiguration { [cmdletbinding()] Param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "BySMTPAddress")] [string]$groupSMTPAddress="None", [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "ByDN")] [string]$dn="None", [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "BySMTPAddress")] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "ByDN")] [string]$globalCatalogServer, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "BySMTPAddress")] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "ByDN")] [array]$parameterSet, [Parameter(Mandatory = $TRUE,ParameterSetName = "BySMTPAddress")] [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,ParameterSetName = "ByDN")] $adCredential, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,ParameterSetName = "BySMTPAddress")] [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,ParameterSetName = "ByDN")] [ValidateSet("Basic","Negotiate")] $activeDirectoryAuthenticationMethod="Negotiate", [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,ParameterSetName = "BySMTPAddress")] [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,ParameterSetName = "ByDN")] [boolean]$isValidTest=$FALSE ) #Output all parameters bound or unbound and their associated values. write-functionParameters -keyArray $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Parameters.Keys -parameterArray $PSBoundParameters -variableArray (Get-Variable -Scope Local -ErrorAction Ignore) #Declare function variables. $functionDLConfiguration=$NULL #Holds the return information for the group query. #Start function processing.
