Use the Set-IPBlockListConfig cmdlet to modify the IP Block list configuration on a computer that has the Edge Transport server role or the Hub Transport server role installed.

Syntax


`Set-IPBlockListConfig [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-Enabled <$true \| $false>] [-ExternalMailEnabled <$true \| $false>] [-InternalMailEnabled <$true \| $false>] [-MachineEntryRejectionResponse <AsciiString>] [-StaticEntryRejectionResponse <AsciiString>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]`

Detailed Description

The IP Block list is used by the Connection Filter agent. The Connection Filter agent acts on the IP address of the remote server that initiates the SMTP connection to determine what action, if any, to take on an incoming message.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "Anti-spam features" entry in the Transport Permissions topic.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Type	Description
Confirm	Optional	System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter	The Confirm switch causes the command to pause processing and requires you to acknowledge what the command will do before processing continues. You don't have to specify a value with the Confirm switch.
DomainController	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn	The DomainController parameter specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that writes this configuration change to Active Directory. The DomainController parameter isn't supported on the Edge Transport server role. The Edge Transport server role writes only to the Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) instance.
Enabled	Optional	System.Boolean	The Enabled parameter specifies whether the IP Block list is used for content filtering on the computer on which you're running the command. Valid input for the Enabled parameter is `$true` or `$false`. The default setting is `$true`. When the Enabled parameter is set to `$true`, the IP Block list is used for content filtering on the computer on which you're running the command.
ExternalMailEnabled	Optional	System.Boolean	The ExternalMailEnabled parameter specifies whether the IP Block list is used for content filtering for all messages from connections external to the Exchange organization. Valid input for the ExternalMailEnabled parameter is `$true` or `$false`. The default setting is `$true`. When the ExternalMailEnabled parameter is set to `$true`, the IP Block list is used for content filtering for all messages from connections external to the Exchange organization.
InternalMailEnabled	Optional	System.Boolean	The InternalMailEnabled parameter specifies whether the IP Block list is used for content filtering for all messages from senders internal to the Exchange organization. Valid input for the InternalMailEnabled parameter is `$true` or `$false`. The default setting is `$false`. When the InternalMailEnabled parameter is set to `$true`, the IP Block list is used for content filtering for all messages from senders internal to the Exchange organization. Authenticated partner messages aren't considered internal mail.
MachineEntryRejectionResponse	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Data.AsciiString	The MachineEntryRejectionResponse parameter specifies customized responses for messages received from IP addresses that were added to the IP Block list by sender reputation. Enter the message body that you want delivered in the non-delivery report (NDR) to senders. Don't exceed 240 characters in the argument. When you pass an argument, you must enclose the MachineEntryRejectionResponse parameter in quotation marks (") if the phrase contains spaces, for example: "Message rejected".
StaticEntryRejectionResponse	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Data.AsciiString	The StaticEntryRejectionResponse parameter specifies a customized response for messages blocked by the IP Block list on the Connection Filter agent. Don't exceed 240 characters in the argument. When you pass an argument, you must enclose the StaticEntryRejectionResponse parameter in quotation marks (") if the phrase contains spaces, for example: "Message rejected".
WhatIf	Optional	System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter	The WhatIf switch instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf switch, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf switch.
