Thanks Sreec

I was trying the below script in the HOL

$NSXUsername = "admin"

$NSXPassword = "VMware1!"

[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::CertificatePolicy = New-Object TrustAllCertsPolicy

$auth = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($NSXUsername+":"+$NSXPassword))

$head = @{"Authorization"="Basic $auth"}

$uri = "https://192.168.110.15"

$csv = Import-Csv c:\script\test.csv

foreach ($TestIPSet in $csv)

{

$rulename = $TestIPSet.name

$ruledesc = $TestIPSet.desc

$rulevalue = $TestIPSet.value

$body = "<ipset><description> $ruledesc </description<name> $rulename </name><value> $rulevalue </value></ipset>"

Write-Host -BackgroundColor:Black -ForgroundColor:Yellow "Status: Creating IPSets.This may take a few minutes."

Invoke-RestMethod -uri "$uri/api/2.0/services/ipset/globalroot-0" -Body $body -Method:Post -Headers $head -ContentType "application/xml"

Write-Host -BackgroundColor:Black -ForegroundColor:Green "Status:IPSets Successfully Created."

}

I am getting the error related to the POST command.

Let me know what is wrong in the Invoke-RestMethod command.

I tried the attached power shell script & it worked for adding IP address to the existing scripts.

I have one query regarding the below line.

<revision>0</revision>

What does this line indicate.

– In progress

$NSXUsername = "admin"
$NSXPassword = "VMware1!"
$auth =  [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($NSXUsername+":"+$NSXPassword))
$head = @{"Authorization"="Basic $auth"}
$uri = "https://192.168.110.15"
$csv = Get-Content c:\Script\test.csv
$body = "<ipset>

<type>
<typeName>IPSet</typeName>
</type>

Write-Host -BackgroundColor:Black -ForgroundColor:Yellow "Status: Creating IPSets.This may take a few minutes."
[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::ServerCertificateValidationCallback = {$true}

}

Any inputs

Thanks.

I will try it out.

One question.

Get-NsxIpSet blah | Add-NsxIpSetMember -IpAddress 3.3.3.3,4.4.4.4,5.5.5.1-5.5.5.254,10.0.0.0/8

Instead of specifying, the IP address like above, I would like to take the Ip address from the .txt or .csv file.

The .txt or .csv file will have the list of IP address in the above format & I want to import it from these files.

$NSXUsername = "admin"

$NSXPassword = "VMware1!"

$auth =  [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($NSXUsername+":"+$NSXPassword))

$head = @{"Authorization"="Basic $auth"}

$uri = "https://192.168.110.15"

[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::ServerCertificateValidationCallback = {$true}

Get-NsxIpSet Test| Add-NsxIpSetMember -IpAddress 3.3.3.3,4.4.4.4,5.5.5.1-5.5.5.254,10.0.0.0/8

I was using the above syntax.

The error i got is " The term get-NSXIPSet is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet

Thanks.

I was trying in the VMware HOL

Let me know if I will be use Power NSX in the HOL

Could you please share me how to connect to NSX Manager/VI Server in HOL

Any help on how to use Power NSX in HOL

Also any inputs what the below command means.

<revision>0</revision>

Can any one help me with the below what the revision means.

<revision>0</revision>

I am planning to automate to add IP address to the existing IPSets using PowerShell with REST API commands.

So every time I do the  IPSets update, which will be scheduled how should i manage with the revision version.

Is there any way i can do it without checking the revision number.
