Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Required

Xds Identity

Service location of the Application Server to be modified. For example: -Identity "ApplicationServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com".

Note that you can leave off the prefix "ApplicationServer:" when specifying an Application server. For example: -Identity "atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com".

ApplicationDatabase

Optional

String

Service location of the Application database. For example: -ApplicationDatabase "ApplicationDatabase:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com".

AppSharingPortCount

Optional

Integer

Total number of ports allocated for application sharing. The actual ports to be opened will start with the value configured for AppSharingPortStart and continue through the number of ports specified for AppSharingPortCount. For example, if the AppSharingPortStart is set to 60000 and the AppSharingPortCount is set to 100 then ports 60000 through 60099 will be used for application sharing.

AppSharingPortStart

Optional

Integer

First port in the range of ports allocated for application sharing. For example: –AppSharingPortStart 60000.

AtsSipPort

Optional

Integer

Port used for the Audio Test service.

AudioPortCount

Optional

Integer

Total number of ports allocated for sending and receiving audio traffic. The actual ports to be opened will start with the value configured for AudioPortStart and continue through the number of ports specified for AudioPortCount. For example, if the AudioPortStart is set to 60000 and the AudioPortCount is set to 100, then ports 60000 through 60099 will be used for audio traffic.

AudioPortStart

Optional

Integer

First port in the range of ports allocated for sending and receiving audio traffic. For example: –AudioPortStart 60000.

CaaSipPort

Optional

Integer

SIP port used by the Conferencing Attendant application, used when connecting users to a dial-in conference.

CasSipPort

Optional

Integer

SIP port used by the Conferencing Announcement application, used to play announcements (for example, "Ken Myer is now exiting") during a conference.

CpsSipPort

Optional

Integer

SIP port used by the Call Park service. The Call Park service enables you to place a call on hold from one telephone, then have that call retrieved from a different phone.

PdpSipPort

Optional

Integer

SIP port used by the Policy Decision Point Server. The Policy Decision Point Server is used for bandwidth management.

PdpTurnPort

Optional

Integer

Turn traffic port used by the Policy Decision Point Server.

RgsSipPort

Optional

Integer

SIP port used by the Response Group application. The Response Group application provides a way to direct incoming phone calls to a specific group of people, such as an organization’s support team.

RgsWcfMtlsPort

Optional

Integer

Port used for Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) mutual TLS (MTLS) traffic used by the Response Group application.

VideoPortCount

Optional

Integer

Total number of ports allocated for sending and receiving video traffic. The actual ports to be opened will start with the value configured for VideoPortStart and continue through the number of ports specified for VideoPortCount. For example, if the VideoPortStart is set to 60000 and the VideoPortCount is set to 100, then ports 60000 through 60099 will be used for video traffic.

VideoPortStart

Optional

Integer

First port in the range of ports allocated for sending and receiving video traffic. For example –VideoPortStart 60000.

Force

Optional

Switch Parameter

Suppresses the display of any non-fatal error message that might occur when running the command.

WhatIf

Optional

Switch Parameter

Describes what would happen if you executed the command without actually executing the command.

Confirm

Optional

Switch Parameter

Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command.

Detailed Description

The Application service hosts a number of Microsoft Lync Server 2010 programs that are not part of the core server components; these programs include the Response Group application, the Conferencing Attendant application, and the Conferencing Announcement application. The Application service takes these programs and fully integrates them into the Lync Server 2010 environment.

The Set-CsApplicationServer cmdlet enables administrators to modify the configuration settings for any (or all) of the Application Servers deployed in their organization. For example, you can modify the ports used for audio, video, or application sharing traffic, or assign new values to ports used by individual applications such as the Conferencing Attendant application or the Conferencing Announcement application. Note that any time you change ports you will then need to restart the corresponding service.

Who can run this cmdlet: By default, members of the following groups are authorized to run the Set-CsApplicationServer cmdlet locally: RTCUniversalServerAdmins. To return a list of all the role-based access control (RBAC) roles this cmdlet has been assigned to (including any custom RBAC roles you have created yourself), run the following command from the Windows PowerShell prompt:

Get-CsAdminRole | Where-Object {$_.Cmdlets –match "Set-CsApplicationServer"}

Input Types

None. Set-CsApplicationServer does not accept pipelined input.

Return Types

Set-CsApplicationServer does not return any values or objects. Instead, the cmdlet modifies existing instances of the Microsoft.Rtc.Management.Xds.DisplayApplicationServer object.

Example

-------------------------- Example 1 ------------------------

Copy Code
Set-CsApplicationServer -Identity "ApplicationServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com" -CasSipPort 5074 

The command shown in Example 1 configures the SIP port for the Conferencing Announcement application on the Application Server ApplicationServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com to 5074.

-------------------------- Example 2 ------------------------

Copy Code
Set-CsApplicationServer -Identity "ApplicationServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com" -AudioPortStart 49500 -AudioPortCount 5500 

The preceding command configures audio ports for the Application Server ApplicationServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com. In this example, the starting audio port is set to 49500 and a total of 5500 ports are set aside for audio traffic.

-------------------------- Example 3 ------------------------

Copy Code
Get-CsService -ApplicationServer | ForEach-Object {Set-CsApplicationServer -Identity $_.Identity -CasSipPort 5074} 

In Example 3, the SIP port for the Conferencing Announcement application is set to 5074 for all of the Application Servers in the organization. To do this, the command first uses Get-CsService to return a collection of all the Application Servers currently in use. This collection is then piped to the ForEach-Object cmdlet, which takes each server in the collection, and uses Set-CsApplicationServer to set the Conferencing Announcement application SIP port to 5074.
