PowerShell Multiple Input IP Addresses

Question

I have an issue with multiple input in this code:

cls
Install-Module SNMP
Get-Command -Module SNMP

Write-Output ----------------------------------------
$IP = "192.168.15.1"
Write-Output ----------------------------------------
Write-Output "Selected IP is: $IP"
Write-Output ----------------------------------------

Invoke-SnmpWalk -IP $IP -Community public -OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2  | Format-Table Data -AutoSize -HideTableHeaders | Out-File C:\NameP.ps1xml 

Get-Content C:\NameP.ps1xml  | Where { $_ -ne ""  } | Set-Content C:\NameP1.ps1xml 
$Ports = @(Get-Content C:\NameP1.ps1xml | Where-Object { $_.StartsWith("Unit") } )
$NumberOfports = @(Get-Content C:\NameP1.ps1xml | Where-Object { $_.StartsWith("Unit") } ).Count

Write-Output ----------------------------------------
Write-Output "Name ports: "$Ports  
Write-Output ----------------------------------------
Write-Output "Number of ports:  $NumberOfports"

This is for one IP address of switch and a I need to go through multiple switches of one production with different IP addresses for example 192.168.16.1, 192.168.17.1 suddenly with one script with list of IP or something like that.

My output:

I want this output for more IPs. Do you have any simple solution that would go through multiple IP addresses? Then I still work with these data. Thanks for every idea.

Answer 1

1. Provide the multiple IP's as a "list",
2. Simply encapsulate the repeated code within a Foreach loop.

Thus:

Install-Module SNMP
Get-Command -Module SNMP
Write-Output ----------------------------------------
$IP = "192.168.15.1","192.168.17.1" # Add more to the list
Write-Output ----------------------------------------
Write-Output "Selected IP is: $IP"
Write-Output ----------------------------------------

$IP | % {
    Invoke-SnmpWalk -IP $_ -Community public -OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2  | Format- 
    Table Data -AutoSize -HideTableHeaders | Out-File C:\NameP.ps1xml 

    Get-Content C:\NameP.ps1xml  | Where { $_ -ne ""  } | Set-Content 
    C:\NameP1.ps1xml 
    $Ports = @(Get-Content C:\NameP1.ps1xml | Where-Object { $_.StartsWith("Unit") } 
    )
    $NumberOfports = @(Get-Content C:\NameP1.ps1xml | Where-Object { 
    $_.StartsWith("Unit") } ).Count

    Write-Output ----------------------------------------
    Write-Output "Name ports: "$Ports  
    Write-Output ----------------------------------------
    Write-Output "Number of ports:  $NumberOfports"

} # End of ForEach
