Key
-AddressFamily
Gets the IP address configurations that match the address families.
Accepted values: IPv4, IPv6 (either or both as an array).
-AddressState
An array of duplicate address detection (DAD) state values for the IP address.
Use this parameter to filter the output based on addresses that are valid and available for use.
Accepted values:
-- Invalid. IP address configuration information for addresses that are not valid and will not be used.
-- Tentative. IP address configuration information for addresses that are not used for communication,
as the uniqueness of those IP addresses is being verified.
-- Duplicate. IP address configuration information for addresses for which a duplicate IP address has been
detected and the current IP address will not be used.
-- Deprecated. IP address configuration information for addresses that will no longer be used to establish new
connections, but will continue to be used with existing connections.
-- Preferred. IP address configuration information for addresses that are valid and available for use.
-AsJob
Run the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
-AssociatedIPInterface
Specify an IP interface as a CIM object. To obtain an IP interface, use the Get-NetIPInterface cmdlet.
-CimSession
Run the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer.
Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet.
The default is the current session on the local computer.
-IncludeAllCompartments
Indicates that the cmdlet includes addresses from all configured network compartments.
If you do not specify this parameter, the cmdlet gets only addresses in the default network compartment.
-InterfaceAlias
Specifies an array of aliases of network interfaces. The cmdlet gets IP addresses that match the aliases.
-InterfaceIndex
Specifies an array of indexes of network interfaces. The cmdlet gets IP addresses that match the indexes.
-IPAddress
Specifies an array of IPv4 or IPv6 addresses.
-PolicyStore
Specifies a PolicyStore value.
Accepted values:
ActiveStore The IP address information is valid.
PersistentStore The computer saves IP address information across restarts.
When the computer restarts, it copies the saved settings to the ActiveStore.
The default value is ActiveStore.
-PreferredLifetime
Specifies an array of values of preferred lifetimes, as TimeSpan objects, for an IP address.
To obtain a TimeSpan object, use the New-TimeSpan cmdlet.
-PrefixLength
Specifies an array of prefix lengths. This parameter defines the local subnet size, and is also known as a subnet mask.
-PrefixOrigin
Specifies an array of origins for address prefixes. IP addresses are divided into two parts, the prefix and the suffix.
The address prefix identifies the network portion of an IP address, and the address suffix identifies the host portion.
Accepted values:
Manual The IP address prefix was manually specified.
WellKnown The IP address prefix is from a well-known source.
DHCP The IP address prefix was provided by DHCP settings.
RouterAdvertisement The IP address prefix was obtained through a router advertisement (RA).
Other The IP address prefix was obtained from another source, such as a VPN.
-SkipAsSource
Indicates whether an address is a primary IP address.
This parameter identifies the primary IP address for outgoing traffic in a multiple IP address scenario.
If this parameter is set to True, the addresses are not used for outgoing traffic and are not registered in DNS.
-SuffixOrigin
Specifies an array of origins for address suffixes.
IP addresses are divided into two parts, the prefix and the suffix.
The address prefix identifies the network portion of an IP address, and the address suffix identifies the host portion.
Accepted values:
Manual The IP address suffix was manually specified.
WellKnown The IP address suffix is from a well-known source.
DHCP The IP address suffix was provided by DHCP settings.
Link The IP address suffix was obtained from the link-layer address.
Random The IP address suffix was obtained from a random source.
Other The IP address suffix was obtained from another source, such as a VPN.
-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.
If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then PowerShell calculates an optimum throttle limit for
the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer.
The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
-Type
Specifies an array of IP address types.
Accepted values: Unicast or Anycast, default = Unicast.
-ValidLifetime
Specifies an array of values for valid lifetimes, as TimeSpan objects, for an IP address.
To obtain a TimeSpan object, use the New-TimeSpan cmdlet.
The Get-NetIPAddress cmdlet gets the IP address configuration, such as IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses and the IP interfaces with which addresses are associated. Without parameters, this cmdlet gets the entire IP address configuration for the computer.
Get the currently connected IPv4 IP address for the local machine:
PS C:\> $ip4 = Get-NetIPAddress -AddressFamily IPv4 -InterfaceIndex $(Get-NetConnectionProfile | Select-Object -ExpandProperty InterfaceIndex) | Select-Object -ExpandProperty IPAddress
Get the currently connected IPv6 IP address for the local machine:
PS C:\> $ip6 = Get-NetIPAddress -AddressFamily IPv6 -InterfaceIndex $(Get-NetConnectionProfile | Select-Object -ExpandProperty InterfaceIndex) | Select-Object -ExpandProperty IPAddress
Get both the currently connected IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses for the local machine and place on the clipboard:
PS C:\> Get-NetIPAddress -InterfaceIndex $(Get-NetConnectionProfile | Select-Object -ExpandProperty InterfaceIndex) | Select-Object -ExpandProperty IPAddress | set-clipboard
Get IP address information and format the output:
PS C:\> Get-NetIPAddress | Format-Table
Get hostname from IP:
PS C:\> [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostEntry('ip_address').HostName
Get IP address information by the interface index:
PS C:\> Get-NetIPAddress -InterfaceIndex 12
Get IP address information and sort the output by the interface index:
PS C:\> Get-NetIPAddress | Sort-Object -Property InterfaceIndex | Format-Table
Get IP address configuration for IP addresses that have a ValidLifetime of less than one day:
PS C:\> Get-NetIPAddress | `
Where-Object -FilterScript { $_.ValidLifetime -Lt ([TimeSpan]::FromDays(1)) }
Get IP address information and sort the output by the interface index:
PS C:\> Get-NetIPAddress | `
Where-Object -FilterScript { $_.ValidLifetime -Eq ([TimeSpan]::MaxValue) }
