Network Scan via DHCP scopes

Hi, this post is about checking network reachability using DHCP scopes and ping.

Despite network monitoring tools monitor all network, using DHCP scopes might be a useful technique for crosscheck.

In order to do that, we can get scopes and find scope option with 003 ID (Router)

$scopes=Get-DhcpServerv4Scope

You can get scope router like this

$scopeRouter=$scope | Get-DhcpServerv4Optionvalue -Optionid 003 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

And you can acquire the result like

$result=Test-NetConnection $($scopeRouter.Value)

You can find the script on GitHub

Playing with registry keys

Hello Fellow System Administrators For some reasons, I had to keep track of some variables and instead of using environmental variables, I tried to write down these variables to registry. Basically I tried to write registry keys to \HKLM\Software\<Contoso> path. I think everyone passes by here knows which company Contoso.com is. Lets start with reading registry with get-childItem  hklm:\Software\Contoso Or Key properties like ( Get-ItemProperty  -Path  hklm: \ Software \Contoso). Test After reading key and key property, now we can check the key and create it on control if it doesn't exist. function   Get-RegistryKey {      param (     [ Parameter ( Position = 0 , mandatory = $true )][ String ] $RegProperty ,     [ Parameter ( Position = 0 , mandatory = $true )][ String ] $RegPath ,     [ String ] $RegKey = "."     )    ...
