As shown in the code below, I am using the Get-WmiObject<\/strong> cmdlet to query the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration<\/strong> WMI class. I pass a filter with IPEnabled=TRUE<\/strong> to ensure I am querying the network adapters with a configured IP address. The \u2013ComputerName<\/strong> parameter takes the computer name against which this WMI query will be executed. I placed the entire WMI query inside a try <\/strong>block to catch the errors.try<\/strong> { $Networks<\/strong> = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration ` –Filter<\/strong> IPEnabled=TRUE ` -ComputerName $Computer<\/strong> ` -ErrorAction Stop } catch<\/strong> { Write-Verbose “Failed to Query $Computer<\/strong>. Error details: $_<\/strong>” continue<\/strong>}<\/p>\n\n\n\n After the WMI query executes, we get a list of network adapters that have a configured IP address. The next step is to iterate through them and find out the DNS server IP addresses. You can see that in the code below. The\u00a0DNSServerSearchOrder\u00a0<\/strong>parameter of each network connection contains the DNS server IP addresses. After reading the DNS server IP address parameters, I take the output through several tests to ensure that it is not empty (because it is quite possible that we configured static IP addresses and left the DNS server fields empty, either intentionally or by mistake) and to determine whether just one DNS server IP is configured. If the list of DNS server IP addresses is empty, I set the\u00a0$PrimaryDNSServer<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0$SecondaryDNSServer\u00a0<\/strong>variables to \u201cNot set.\u201d If only one DNS server is configured, I set the\u00a0$SecondaryDNSServer\u00a0<\/strong>variable to \u201cNot set\u201d and assign the DNS server IP value to\u00a0$PrimaryDNSServer<\/strong>. Both of these variables will be set to appropriate DNS server IP address values if both DNS server IP addresses are available in the network adapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n foreach<\/strong>($Networkin$Networks<\/strong>) { <\/p>\n\n\n\n $DNSServers<\/strong> = $Network<\/strong>.DNSServerSearchOrder <\/p>\n\n\n\n $NetworkName<\/strong> = $Network<\/strong>.Description <\/p>\n\n\n\n If<\/strong>(!$DNSServers<\/strong>) { <\/p>\n\n\n\n $PrimaryDNSServer<\/strong> = “Notset” <\/p>\n\n\n\n $SecondaryDNSServer<\/strong> = “Notset” <\/p>\n\n\n\n } elseif<\/strong>($DNSServers<\/strong>.count -eq 1) { <\/p>\n\n\n\n $PrimaryDNSServer<\/strong> = $DNSServers<\/strong>[0] <\/p>\n\n\n\n $SecondaryDNSServer<\/strong> = “Notset” } else<\/strong> { <\/p>\n\n\n\n $PrimaryDNSServer<\/strong> = $DNSServers<\/strong>[0] <\/p>\n\n\n\n $SecondaryDNSServer<\/strong> = $DNSServers<\/strong>[1]<\/p>\n\n\n\n }<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n So far, we queried the required data and stored it in two variables ($PrimaryDNSServer and $SecondaryDNSServer<\/strong>). The next step is to create a custom PSObject to store the data and display it on the screen. The below code does exactly this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n $OutputObj<\/strong> = New-Object -Type PSObject<\/p>\n\n\n\n $OutputObj<\/strong> | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name ComputerName -Value $Computer<\/strong>.ToUpper()<\/p>\n\n\n\n $OutputObj<\/strong> | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name PrimaryDNSServers -Value $PrimaryDNSServer$OutputObj<\/strong> | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name SecondaryDNSServers -Value <\/p>\n\n\n\n $SecondaryDNSServer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n $OutputObj<\/strong> | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name IsDHCPEnabled -Value $IsDHCPEnabled<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
