Examples
Display properties for the subnets 10.55.130.*
C:\> dsquery subnet -name 10.55.130.* "CN=10.55.130.0/24,CN=Subnets,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=example,DC=com" C:\>dsget subnet "CN=10.55.130.0/24,CN=Subnets,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=example,DC=com" dn desc site CN=10.55.130.0/24,CN=Subnets,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=example,DC=com EXAMPLECR EXAMPLE-MSY dsget succeeded
The output from DSQuery can be piped directly to DSGet:
C:\> dsquery subnet -name 10.55.130.* | dsget subnet -site site EXAMPLE-MSY dsget succeeded
