Script based on IP Address

[Elephant007]

I would like to make a script based on the IP Address of the computer on our domain, we use 10. IP Address schemes

Basically I need to check @IPAdress1 and @IPAdress2, The problem I'm running into is if either @IPAddress1 or @IPAddress2 equals 0.0.0.0

I don't know how to have my script only use a valid 10.x.x.x IP Address.

I use StringSplit to get the first octet, to make sure it's a valid IP

I use StringSplit to get the second octet which tells me the computers location

Just don't know how to 'find' the valid IP and not use the 0.0.0.0 IP

Thank you in advance for any help!

im not sure i follow you but maybe this:

If @IPAddress1 Then
     ;==> your code here
Elseif @IPAddress2 Then
     ;==> your alternate code here
Else ;==> this is assuming your that ip1 and ip2 failed, so it is 0.0.0.0
     ;==> your code for 0.0.0.0
EndIf

     ;==> your code for 0.0.0.0
EndIf

Thanks for your quick reply. What you've given me means that I would have to write the same code twice for each @IPAddress

Let me see if I can explain myself better

We have computers and laptops on our domain. Wired connection uses @IPAddress2 and Wireless uses @IPAddress2

In my script I need to eliminate any address that does not start with 10.

So if @IPAddress2 = 0.0.0.0

Then my script knows to use @IPAddress1

I can then strip down the IP Address to the second octet

I can script the rest

As an example

_IPRule(@IPAddress1)
_IPRule(@IPAddress2)

Func _IPRule($IPaddress)
    $IPArray = StringSplit($IPaddress, '.', 2)
    If Not IsArray($IPArray) Or UBound($IPArray) <> 4 Then Return MsgBox(0, 'Error', '$IPArray is not an array')
    If $IPArray[0] = 0 Then Return MsgBox(0, 'ERROR', 'Bad IP Address')
    If $IPArray[0] = 10 Then
        Switch $IPArray[1]
            Case 1 To 100
                MsgBox(0, 'Location', 'Location is in the 0 - 100')
                ;do something else here if you want
            Case 100 To 200
                MsgBox(0, 'Location', 'Location is in the 100 - 200')
                ;do something else here if you want
            Case 201 To 255
                MsgBox(0, 'Location', 'Location is in the 201 - 255')
                ;do something else here if you want
        EndSwitch
    Else
        Return MsgBox(0, 'Unknown Location', 'IP Address is: ' & $IPaddress)
    EndIf
EndFunc   ;==>_IPRule

EDIT...This may be a little better for your needs (to get you started with your logic)

Local $IPList[4] = [@IPAddress1,@IPAddress2,@IPAddress3,@IPAddress4]
For $Element In $IPList
    _IPRule($Element)
Next

Func _IPRule($IPaddress)
    
    Local $IPArray = StringSplit($IPaddress, '.', 2)
    If Not IsArray($IPArray) Or UBound($IPArray) <> 4 Then Return MsgBox(0, 'Error', '$IPArray is not an array')
    If $IPArray[0] = 0 Then Return MsgBox(0, 'ERROR', 'Bad IP Address')
    If $IPArray[0] = 10 Then
        Switch $IPArray[1]
            Case 1 To 100
                MsgBox(0, 'Location', 'Location is in the 0 - 100')
                ;do something else here if you want
            Case 100 To 200
                MsgBox(0, 'Location', 'Location is in the 100 - 200')
                ;do something else here if you want
            Case 201 To 255
                MsgBox(0, 'Location', 'Location is in the 201 - 255')
                ;do something else here if you want
        EndSwitch
    Else
        Return MsgBox(0, 'Unknown Location', 'IP Address is: ' & $IPaddress)
    EndIf

Woo Hoo!! You're saying I have some sort of Logic!

Well the second script you provided for me can be tweaked to how I need it to be tweaked to, I believe.

I can only test it in the domain environment though. I've tweaked it some at home and I can see that, so far, it will work how I need it to work.

This is the second time you've helped me with a script and I thank you!

Glad to help!!

EDIT...In the 2nd Case statement I should have made it 101 to 200, but you'd have figured that out, right?!

Yes I did, here's how my script turned out and it works GREAT!

now I only have to build one installation package..

Local $IPList[4] = [@IPAddress1,@IPAddress2,@IPAddress3,@IPAddress4]
For $Element In $IPList
    _IPRule($Element)
Next

Func _IPRule($IPaddress)

    If Not IsArray($IPArray) Or UBound($IPArray) <> 4 Then Return MsgBox(0, "Error", "$IPArray is not an array")
        If $IPArray[0] = 0 Then 
            EndIf
    If $IPArray[0] = 10 Then
        Switch $IPArray[1]
        Case 101, 201, 208
            $Name = "Training"
        Case 103
            $Name = "Bonham"
        Case 104
            $Name = "Bowie"
        Case 150
            $Name = "Ward"
        Case 152
             $Name = "Ortiz"
        EndSwitch

If FileExists ( @ProgramFilesDir & "\Ellis\Kids\Ellis Essentials 2.7 Client.msi" ) Then
            RunWait ( "e28cu\Setup.exe /s /SMS /F1e28cu\upgrade.iss", @WindowsDir, @SW_HIDE )
        Else
            RunWait ( 'Setup.exe /s /SMS /F1' & $Name & '.iss', @WindowsDir, @SW_HIDE )
        EndIf
    EndIf
EndFunc
