the goal is to get asked for an ip range eg. 192.168.20.x of any given Class C subnet
and then have a start and end ip for the range (which should at the end reflect our DHCP range)
the result should create a .txt with all the IPs that it will have to scan later on for clients and some WMI stuff
part 1 seems pretty simple :
$oct1=Read-host "Octet 1"
$oct2=Read-host "Octet 2"
$oct3=Read-host "Octet 3""
asks for 192.168.0 ... so far - so good
part 2 then goes somehow like this:
$start=Read-host "start"
$end=Read-host "end"
but here i fail:
"$oct1.$oct2.$oct3.$start" gives me 192.168.0.100
"$oct1.$oct2.$oct3.$end" gives me 192.168.0.150
$start..$end gives me the list i basically wanted like
100
101
102
...
How do i combine this to get this result:
192.168.0.100
192.168.0.101
192.168.0.102
...
i am failing for hours now ... it cant be much
cheers and thx
