Copy and paste the below script in to Notepad and save it as a ps1 file: cls $servers = Get-Content computers.txt foreach($server in $servers) { $nics = Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration -ComputerName $server -ErrorAction Inquire | Where{$_.IPEnabled -eq "TRUE"} foreach($nic in $nics) { Write-Host $server "-" $nic.IPAddress "-" $nic.FullDNSRegistrationEnabled } } 3. Now run the script. Example output: server01 - 10.10.10.10 - True server01 - 192.168.0.1 - False server02 - 10.10.10.20 - True server03 - 10.16.10.30 - True
