# New-OPNSenseDNSForwardingHost

## SYNOPSIS
Creates a new DNS forwarding host on an OPNSense firewall.

## SYNTAX

```
New-OPNSenseDNSForwardingHost -Domain <String> -Server <String> [-Description <String>] [-Disabled <Boolean>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm]
```

## DESCRIPTION
The New-OPNSenseDNSForwardingHost cmdlet creates a new DNS forwarding host on an OPNSense firewall. This allows you to forward DNS queries for specific domains to specific DNS servers.

## EXAMPLES

### Example 1: Create a new DNS forwarding host
```powershell
New-OPNSenseDNSForwardingHost -Domain "example.com" -Server "192.168.1.10" -Description "Internal DNS Server"
```

This example creates a new DNS forwarding host that forwards queries for example.com to the DNS server at 192.168.1.10.

### Example 2: Create a disabled DNS forwarding host
```powershell
New-OPNSenseDNSForwardingHost -Domain "test.local" -Server "10.0.0.53" -Description "Test DNS Server" -Disabled $true
```

This example creates a new DNS forwarding host that is initially disabled.
