Netsh commands for ras IP
- The IP context is for IP version 4. The
following entries provide details for each command.
dump
Displays the IP configuration of a remote access server in script form.
Syntax
dump
Remarks
- You can dump the contents of the current
configuration to a file that can be used to restore altered
configuration settings.
Example
The following commands save the current configuration as a script in the c:\test\rasipcfg.dmp file.
- From the command prompt:
netsh ras ip dump > c:\test\rasipcfg.dmp
- From the netsh ras ip context prompt:
set file open c:\test\rasipcfg.dmp
dump
set file close
You can use the netsh exec command to run the script created by the netsh dump command.
show config
Displays the current IPv4 configuration of the remote access server.
Syntax
show config
set negotiation
Specifies whether the remote access server should allow IPv4 to be used on client connections the server accepts.
Syntax
set negotiation
[ mode = ] { allow | deny }
Parameters
- [ mode = ] { allow | deny }
- Required. Specifies whether to permit the use of the IPv4 protocol over client connections. The allow parameter allows IPv4 over client connections. The deny parameter prevents IPv4 over client connections.
set access
Specifies whether IPv4 network traffic from any client are forwarded to the network or networks to which the remote access server is connected.
Syntax
set access
[ mode = ] { all | serveronly }
Parameters
- [ mode = ] { all | serveronly }
- Required. Specifies whether clients are able to reach the remote access server and any networks to which it is connected. The all parameter allows clients to reach networks through the server. The serveronly parameter allows clients to reach only the server and any shared folders that it makes available.
set addrassign
Sets the method by which the remote access server assigns IP addresses to its clients.
Syntax
set addrassign
[ method = ] { auto | pool }
Parameters
- [ method = ] { auto | pool }
- Required. Specifies whether IPv4 addresses are assigned by using DHCP or from a pool of addresses held by the remote access server. The auto parameter specifies that addresses are assigned by using DHCP. If no DHCP server is available, a random, private address is assigned. The pool parameter specifies that addresses are assigned from a pool.
set addrreq
Specifies whether dial-up clients are able to request their own IPv4 addresses.
Syntax
set addrreq
[ mode = ] { allow | deny }
Parameters
- [ mode = ] { allow | deny }
- Required. Specifies whether clients are able to request their own IPv4 addresses. The allow parameter allows clients to request addresses. The deny parameter prevents clients from requesting addresses.
set broadcastnameresolution
Enables or disables broadcast name resolution using NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
Syntax
set broadcastnameresolution
[ mode = ] { enabled | disabled }
Parameters
- [ mode = ] { enabled | disabled }
- Required. Specifies whether to enable or disable broadcast name resolution using NetBIOS over TCP/IP. The enabled parameter enables broadcast name resolution using NetBIOS over TCP/IP. The disabled parameter disables broadcast name resolution using NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
Remarks
- To check the status of
broadcastnameresolution, use the dump command.
add range
Adds a range of addresses to the pool of static IPv4 addresses that the remote access server can assign to clients.
Syntax
add range
[ from = ] StartingIPAddress
[ to = ] EndingIPAddress
Parameters
- [ from = ] StartingIPAddress [ to = ] EndingIPAddress
- Required. Specifies the range of IPv4 addresses to add. The StartingIPAddress parameter specifies the first IPv4 address in the range. The EndingIPAddress parameter specifies the last IPv4 address in the range.
Example
To add the range of IPv4 addresses 10.2.2.10 through 10.2.2.20 to the static pool of IP addresses that the remote access server can assign, type:
add range from=10.2.2.10 to=10.2.2.20
delete range
Deletes a range of addresses from the pool of static IPv4 addresses that the remote access server can assign to clients.
Syntax
delete range
[ from = ] StartingIPAddress
[ to = ] EndingIPAddress
Parameters
- [ from = ] StartingIPAddress [ to = ] EndingIPAddress
- Required. Specifies the range of IPv4 addresses to delete. The StartingIPAddress parameter specifies the first IPv4 address in the range. The EndingIPAddress parameter specifies the last IPv4 address in the range.
Example
To delete the range of IPv4 addresses 10.2.2.10 through 10.2.2.20 from the pool of static IPv4 addresses that the remote access server can assign, type:
delete range from=10.2.2.10 to=10.2.2.20
delete pool
Deletes all addresses from the pool of static IP addresses that the remote access server can assign to clients.
Syntax
delete pool
set preferredadapter
Specifies the preferred adapter for the Routing and Remote Access service.
Syntax
set preferredadapter
[ name = ] InterfaceName
Parameters
- [ name = ] InterfaceName
- Specifies the adapter used to obtain the IPv4 addresses for allocation (if configured to use DHCP) and the IPv4 address of DHCP and WINS servers for assignment to remote access clients and demand-dial routers. If no interface is specified, the server randomly selects an adapter when the Routing and Remote Access service is started.
show preferredadapter
Displays the preferred adapter for Routing and Remote Access service.
Syntax
show preferredadapter
