    $t0s = Invoke-ListTier0s
$t0 = $t0s.Results | where {$_.DisplayName -eq $T0GatewayName}
  2. Prepare the input for the operation. 
    $t1 = Initialize-Tier1 -ArpLimit 5000 -DisplayName $T1GatewayName -Tier0Path $t0.Path
  3. Invoke the operation. 
    Invoke-PatchTier1 -Tier1Id $T1GatewayName -Tier1 $t1
