How many IP Addresses on a Windows 7 system?
Here are two different Powershell commands that produce a list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on the same Windows 7 workstation. One parses 'ipconfig' and validates five addresses through '[System.Net.IPaddress]'. The other uses 'gwmi' and the format of the addresses it produces will not similarly validate. Aside from the formatting of the object produced, I cannot understand why they will not validate. It appears here I am extracting IPv6 anycast and broadcast addresses with 'ipconfig' that 'gwmi' is not giving me.
$IPAddress_ipconfig=(ipconfig | Select-string Address) -split ": " | Select-string -notmatch ". ."
foreach ($IP in $IPAddress_ipconfig) {([System.Net.IPaddress]::Parse("$IP")).IPAddressToString}
