Questions[ipconfig](server)

is it posible to resolve the name of a non-domain joined device by ping? the dns server has registered the device. name and Ip are registered in addresslease.

Ok, this is what I have tried:

• If I ping the client-name in the same subnet it gives me a feedback but its end in a timeout.
• nslookup "computername" = "computername" not found: non-existent domain
• On DNS Server (different vlan) = Ping request could not find Host "computername". Please check the name and try again.
• I can ping this client in all vlans
• can't determine that issue on domain-joined devices

Okay, any suggestions?

I have installed server 2016 in VMware workstation 12 and i am facing some weird issues. I have set my ip address and my default gateway but whenever im trying to run the command ipconfig /release it shows the operation failed as no adaptor is in the state permissible. What to do ?I have tried solving by changing the vmware network settings to default now the ip address os showing only apipa

Just for me to understand more, when I run ipconfig /all on my work laptop, at the beginning of the information I see 3 parameters: Host Name, Primary DNS Suffix and DNS Suffix Search List.

I know the first one is the hostname of my laptop and I know the second one is the name of the domain that my laptop is bound too.

I do not understand the third one: DNS Suffix Search List

Let me give you an example:

Host Name: MyLaptopPC

Primary DNS Suffix: network.ad.companyA.com

DNS Suffix Search List:

network.ad.companyA.com

ad.companyA.com

ad.companyB.com

companyB.com

Please see below ipconfig output in windows.

C:>ipconfig

I want to find the Default Gateway for Wireless Network Connection 14 in a bat file then store that in a varient to use later

I understand I can "findstr" but I have no idea how to get the default gateway of that NIC.

Thanks!

I have an OpenBSD firewall where I have to change the IP on the admin interface (including changing subnet/gateway) and I'm looking for how to do this remotely without losing my SSH (so I can fix things if there are problems).

Here is how I imaging being able to do it:

1. Add the new IP as an alias to my network interface. (Question: How do I properly add an IP on a different subnet than the orignal IP? http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq6.html#Setup.aliases is unclear on whether there is anything special to do for a different subnet besides specify the netmask)

2. Add the new gateway with route. (Question: Should I add it as a 'default' gateway or just for the new subnet?)

3. SSH to the new IP.

4. Write a script to if down both the old and new IPs and up the new IP as the main interface IP, At this point I most definitely need to add the new gateway as a default gw right? Run it from within screen so it keeps going if network temporarily drops. (Question: Should this do the job? Are there any special gotchas I should keep my eye out for? Any tips on what commands to run to do this properly?)
