im looking to find a way to script multiple IP address from a central server the script below works great, one i found her on msn however it only works per machines power shell, if someone has a moment is there a way to modify the randomness of an IP address
set to static or DHCP on many machines at once or should i be looking at this differently i have even thought about using
Apart from modifying network adapter properties from the Control Panel, you can also use the Command line tool to enable
disable Network Interface Card.
- Press Windows key + X, click Command Prompt (Admin).
- In the elevated command prompt, copy and paste the command below, and press Enter. This will show you all network adapter names on your PC.
netsh interface show interface
- To enable NIC type, the following command:
netsh interface set interface "network_adapter_name"
admin=enable (e.g netsh
interface set interface "MyEthernet" admin=enable)
To disable NIC type, the following command:
netsh interface set interface "network_adapter_name"
admin=disable (e.g netsh
interface set interface "MyEthernet" admin=disable)
i
still think it is a little too manual any suggestions would be welcome
$IPAddress=$(Read-Host "Specify your IP address (ie 192.168.1.10)")
$InterfaceIndex=$(Read-Host "Enter InterfaceIndex (ie 3) NOTE: Enter 'Show' for help")
foreach ($InterfaceIndex in $InterfaceIndex){
if ($InterfaceIndex -eq "Show" -eq "show") {
Get-NetIPAddress | Format-List -Property InterfaceAlias,InterfaceIndex
}
if ($InterfaceIndex -eq "Show" -eq "show") {
$InterfaceIndex=$(Read-Host "Enter InterfaceIndex")
}
if (-Not ($InterfaceIndex -eq "Show" -eq "show"))
{
}
}
$SubnetMask=$(Read-Host "Enter the subnet mask in bits (ie 24 = 255.255.255.0)")
$DefaultGateway=$(Read-Host "Enter your Default Gateway (ie 192.168.1.1)")
$DNSAddresses=$(Read-Host "Set DNS Server Address/Addresses (ie 8.8.8.8)")
New-NetIPAddress -IPAddress $IPAddress -InterfaceIndex $InterfaceIndex -PrefixLength $SubnetMask -DefaultGateway $DefaultGateway
Set-DnsClientServerAddress -InterfaceIndex $InterfaceIndex -ServerAddresses $DNSAddresses
$Servers = $DefaultGateway,$DNSAddresses
$Ping=$(Read-Host "Do You want me to Ping your Default Gateway and DNS Servers? Yes/No")
if ($Ping -eq "Yes" -eq "yes") {
foreach ($Server in $Servers) {
if (Test-Connection -ComputerName $Server -Count 2 -Quiet) {
Write-Host "$Server is alive and Pinging " -ForegroundColor Green
}
else {
Write-Warning "$Server seems dead not Pinging"
}
}
}
if ($Ping -eq "No" -eq "no") {
Write-Host "Good bye!"
}
elseif (-Not ($Ping -eq "Yes" -eq "yes"))
{
}
Read-Host "Press any key to close..."
i have also found this command for netsh
FOR /L %A IN (10,1,20) DO netsh interface ipv4 add address “Local Area Connection” 192.168.1.%A 255.255.255.0
looks like i can add multiple domains add address,
but not sure how to script this
