Had a gentleman answer 90% of my original question, which is to say I now have the ability to poll a device that I am running the below script on. The end goal is to obtain IP type: Static or DHCP on all desktop/servers on a network I support. I have the list of servers that I will input in a batch file, just looking for the code to actually poll the other devices on the network from one location.
Output to be viewed:
Device name: IP Address: MAC Address: Type: Marvell Yukon 88E8001/8003/8010 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller NULL 00:00:F3:44:C6:00 DHCP Generic Marvell Yukon 88E8056 based Ethernet Controller 192.168.1.102 00:00:F3:44:D0:00 DHCP
ManagementClass objMC = new ManagementClass("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration");
ManagementObjectCollection objMOC = objMC.GetInstances();
txtLaunch.Text = ("Name\tIP Address\tMAC Address\tType" +"\r\n");
foreach (ManagementObject objMO in objMOC)
{
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
object o = objMO.GetPropertyValue("IPAddress");
object m = objMO.GetPropertyValue("MACAddress");
if (o != null || m != null)
{
builder.Append(objMO["Description"].ToString());
builder.Append("\t");
if (o != null)
builder.Append(((string[])(objMO["IPAddress"]))[0].ToString());
else
builder.Append("NULL");
builder.Append("\t");
builder.Append(m.ToString());
builder.Append("\t");
builder.Append(Convert.ToBoolean(objMO["DHCPEnabled"]) ? "DHCP" : "Static");
builder.Append("\r\n");
}
txtLaunch.Text = txtLaunch.Text + (builder.ToString());
I'm open to recommendations here.
