Configure IPv4 Networking with Netsh on Windows server 2012 and windows 10

We can easily configure  IPv4 Networking with Windows GUI , but today we will look at how to change IPv4 with  Netsh command.

1.Open Powershell as administrator and run the next command to show list of  the interface cards:

Netsh interface ipv4 show interface

1netshconf

2. We will configure Ethernet interface (index 12). So to look exiting ip address run the next command:

Netsh interface ipv4 show config Ethernet

2netshconf

3.  As we see To set ip address we will use next command:

Netsh interface ipv4 set address name=Ethernet static 172.16.171.52 mask=255.255.255.0 gateway=172.16.171.1 and press enter

4.  and then type:   netsh interface ipv4 show config Ethernet to see new configuration:

3netshconf

That is all.

You can set also  DNS with next command:

Netsh interface ipv4 set dns name=Ethernet static 172.16.171.51 primary
