Create IP-List with PowerShell

Hi John,

Thank you for raising this. In the module, an IP List isn’t its own entry type. It’s a Data Entry whose subtype is IPList, which is why New-RDMEntry -Type doesn’t offer it. We will add cmdlets to make it easier to create IP List entries and manage their items from PowerShell.

Until then, you can create and populate an IP List by setting the entry’s properties directly. To see which fields are relevant for a given entry type, check this page: https://docs.devolutions.net/powershell/remote-desktop-manager-powershell/powershell-scripting/list-of-property-names-for-powershell-script

Here is an example that creates an IP List with two items and saves it in the current vault:

$entry = New-RDMEntry -Name 'Office network' -Type DataEntry

# Make the data entry an IP List
$entry.DataEntry.ConnectionTypeInfos = @(@{ DataEntryConnectionType = 'IPList' })
$entry.DataEntry.IPListDisplayMode = 'Simple'   # or 'Advanced'

# Add the IP items
$entry.DataEntry.IPList = @(
    @{ Name = 'DC01'; Host = 'dc01.contoso.local'; IP = '10.0.0.10'; Description = 'Domain controller' }
    @{ Name = 'FS01'; Host = 'fs01.contoso.local'; IP = '10.0.0.20'; Description = 'File server' }
)

Set-RDMEntry -InputObject $entry

Each item may also have IPRange, Subnet, VlanID, Gateway, FirewallZone, DHCPServer, and DHCPRange.

To add items to an existing IP List, get the entry, append to the list, and save it:

$entry = Get-RDMEntry -Name 'Office network'
$entry.DataEntry.IPList += @{ Name = 'PRN01'; Host = 'prn01.contoso.local'; IP = '10.0.0.30' }
Set-RDMEntry -InputObject $entry

Hi Maxime

Is there also a way to set the following properties?

• Name = Variable
• Typ = Variable
• Folder = Variable
• IPListEntryMode = Dynamic
• Keywords = EXCL_IP_LIST
• FilterByFolder = True
• FilterByKeywords = True
• TagOperator = Exclude

Best regards, John

Hi John,

Yes, all of these can be set. Here is an example:

$name         = 'My IP list'
$entryFolder  = 'Test'          # folder where the entry is created
$filterFolder = 'Test\Test1'   # folder the dynamic list scans
$keywordNames = '"Tag with space" SpacelessTag'

$entry = New-RDMEntry -Name $name -Type DataEntry -Group $entryFolder

$entry.DataEntry.ConnectionTypeInfos   = @(@{ DataEntryConnectionType = 'IPList' })
$entry.DataEntry.IPListEntryMode       = 'Dynamic'
$entry.DataEntry.IPListDynamicSettings = @{
    Folder           = $filterFolder
    FilterByFolder   = $true
    Keywords         = $keywordNames
    FilterByKeywords = $true
    TagOperator      = 'Exclude'
}

Set-RDMEntry -InputObject $entry

If you need anything else, let us know.

Best regards,
Maxime
