Export-IpamSubnet

  • Reference
Module:
IpamServer

Exports the IP address subnets of an address family on the computer that runs IPAM.

Syntax

Export-IpamSubnet
      -AddressFamily <AddressFamily>
      [-NetworkType <VirtualizationType>]
      [-Path <String>]
      [-PassThru]
      [-Force]
      [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
      [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
      [-AsJob]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Export-IpamSubnet cmdlet exports all of the IP address subnets of an address family on the computer that runs IP Address Management (IPAM). The output is a comma-separated value (.csv) file, or an array of Windows PowerShell objects, or both. Use this cmdlet to export non-virtualized and virtualized address subnets.

You must specify either the Path parameter or the PassThru parameter. The object array returned when using the PassThru parameter can be pipelined for additional filtering. The Force parameter can be used to overwrite an existing .csv file with the same name as specified in the Path parameter.

Unlike the localized object export from a computer running the IPAM client user interface (UI), the field header names and the enum value names of IP address subnet objects exported by Windows PowerShell have English names and are not localized in the language used by the server. The field header names follow the Windows PowerShell property naming conventions.

The cmdlet outputs the date and time values of the exported objects in the localized format of the computer that runs IPAM, and not in UTC.

Examples

Example 1: Export all IPv4 address subnets

PS C:\> Export-IpamSubnet -AddressFamily IPv4 -AddressSpace Default -Path "C:\Subnets_v4.csv"

This command exports all of the IPv4 address subnets that belong to the default address space to the file C:\subnets_v4.csv.

Example 2: Export all IPv6 address subnets

PS C:\> Export-IpamRange -AddressFamily IPv6 -Path "C:\Ranges_v6.csv" -Force

This command exports all IPv6 address ranges to the file Ranges_v6.csv, and overwrites the file if it already exists.

Example 3: Export all IPv4 address subnets for an address space

PS C:\> Export-IpamSubnet -AddressFamily IPv4 -AddressSpace ContosoDataCenter -NetworkType Provider -Path "C:\Subnets_v4.csv"

This command exports all IPv4 address subnets of network type Provider that belong to the ContosoDataCenter address space. The cmdlet writes the output to the file C:\subnets_v4.csv.

Parameters

-AddressFamily

Specifies an address family of IP address range objects that this cmdlet gets. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • IPv4
  • IPv6
Type:AddressFamily
Accepted values:IPv4, IPv6
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Force

Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-NetworkType

Specifies the type of network for the given IP subnet.

The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Provider -- Customer -- NonVirtualized

If the value of the AddressSpace parameter is Default, then this parameter can take the value Provider or NonVirtualized. If the value of the AddressSpace parameter is Provider, then the value of this parameter, if specified, must be Provider. Specifying any other value for this parameter will result in an error. Similarly, if the value of the AddressSpace parameter is Customer, then the value of this parameter, if specified, must be Customer. Specifying any other value for this parameter will result in an error.If you specify the NetworkType parameter but do not specify the AddressSpace, the cmdlet returns all IP address ranges of the given network type.

Type:VirtualizationType
Accepted values:NonVirtualized, Provider, Customer
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Path

Specifies the fully qualified path and name of the file that this cmdlet creates. Use this parameter to export all IP address subnet objects to a .csv file format.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Outputs

CimInstance

This cmdlet returns an object that represents a set of IP subnets in IPAM datastore.
