Use the Get-FederatedDomainProof cmdlet to generate a cryptographically secure string for the domain used for federated delegation in your Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 organization.
Syntax
Get-FederatedDomainProof -DomainName <SmtpDomain>
[-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-Thumbprint
<String>]
|
Detailed Description
The Get-FederatedDomainProof cmdlet generates a cryptographically secure string for the domain that will be used for federated delegation. The resulting string is used to manually configure a text (TXT) record in the Domain Name System (DNS) zone for the domain used by the administrator when running the cmdlet. A TXT record needs to be added to DNS for all accepted domains used for federated delegation. If the thumbprint of a certificate isn't provided, the task generates strings for all the certificates currently configured for the federation trust. Upon initial configuration of federated delegation, the proof string generated for the current certificate needs to be put into the TXT record for the federated domain in DNS. We recommend you update the TXT records whenever a new certificate is configured for the federation trust.
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 "Federation trusts" entry in the Exchange and Shell Infrastructure Permissions topic.
