I’ve been doing a lot of work with Juniper SRX firewalls recently; JunOS allows administrators to build scripts using either XSLT or SLAX.
This is a little SLAX script variant of “show interfaces terse”. I wrote this because I wanted to be able to display interface IP addresses, descriptions and routing instances in one table.

There are a number of WhoIs scripts knocking around, this is my version. Something of a long development cycle since I started this last year, got busy, then finished it today.

A friend of mine found this enormously useful, one of the things PowerShell can do easily that is (apparently) helpful for people who want nothing to do with it otherwise (where it may be either PowerShell or Windows).

Sorting an array of IP addresses is one of those things that’s not quite as clean and simple as would be nice.

I’ve been migrating our Office Communications Server to Lync over the last few days. Last night I started looking at the client policies.
The intention is that we use the in-band-provisioning, which is great, and you’ll find a nice article on Elan Shudnow’s blog.
The client also ships with a group policy template (on retail disk or downloaded from volume licensing) a small number of lines need to be changed as it contains errors.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted, and since it’s almost Christmas I thought I’d better get on with it.
Without further ado I want to post NetShell (I’m not very good at coming up with imaginative names). NetShell is a collection of 17 functions and a few supporting functions in a script module.
After fixing a couple of authentication bugs with Set-DnsRecord and New-DnsRecord I decided to make an attempt to finish off some of the zone and server CmdLets.
The module now contains these additional CmdLets.
- Refresh-DnsZone – Implements the ForceRefresh method for Secondary Zones
- Reload-ADDnsZone – Implements the UpdateFromDS method for AD Integrated Zones
- Reload-DnsZone
- Reset-DnsZoneType – Implements the ChangeZoneType method
- Resume-DnsZone
- Set-DnsZoneTransfer – Implements the ResetSecondaries method
- Start-DnsScavenging
- Start-DnsService
- Stop-DnsService
- Suspend-DnsZone – Implements the Pause method
- Update-DnsZoneFile
As usual, the module can be downloaded from code.msdn.microsoft.com/dnsshell.
