Parameters
-CertificateThumbPrint
Specifies the digital public key X.509 certificate of a user account that has permission to perform this action. This is the certificate thumbprint of the certificate. 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.
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
-ConnectionUri (required)
Specifies the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the Network Controller, used by all Representational State Transfer (REST) clients 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 provided in the ClientSecurityGroup parameter in the Install-NetworkController cmdlet.
-Etag
Specifies the entity tag (ETag) parameter of the resource. An ETag (entity tag) is an HTTP response header returned by an HTTP-compliant web server used to determine change in the content of a resource at a given URL. The value of the header is an opaque string representing the state of the resource at the time the response was generated.
-Force
Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.
-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 (required)
Specifies the ID of the resource to be removed
-WhatIf
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
