Parameters

-CertificateThumbprint: Specifies the certificate thumbprint of a digital public key X.509 certificate of a user account that has permission to perform this action. In order for Network Controller to authorize the account, specify this thumbprint by using the *ClientCertificateThumbprint* parameter of the Install-NetworkController or Set-NetworkController cmdlet.
-ConnectionUri (required): Specifies the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the Network Controller. All Representational State Transfer (REST) clients use this URI to connect to Network Controller.
-Credential: Specifies a user credential that has permission to perform this action. The default value is the current user. This user must be present in the security group specified in the *ClientSecurityGroup* parameter in Install-NetworkController.
-PassInnerException: This thumbprint must also be provided in the ClientCertificateThumbprint parameter in the Install-NetworkController or Set-NetworkController cmdlet so that Network Controller can authorize this user. The thumbprint must be provided only if the network controller client authentication is X509 certificates. Get-NetworkController retrieves that client authentication and authorization information.
-ResourceId: Specifies an array of resource IDs of servers for which this cmdlet gets settings.

Prerequisites
