Change IP adress in GuestVM by hyper-v host using powershell command
- Hi dears,
How to change IP in virtual machine by hyper-v host using powershell commands?
Thanks,
Carazato

- You would have to execute the command against the VM operating system.
As the IP is either given through DHCP with a MAC address reservation, or randomly assigned.
Setting a static IP is performed within the OS of the VM itself.
The other option is that you have some type of agent that runs within the VM and it is actually this agent that you are invoking to set the IP address to a static IP address.
What you are asking sounds very familiar to a new feature of a competing platform. ;-)
That actually operates using the last option that I mention.

- Hi Carazato,
As Brian explained, you have to use script to remotely change VM IP Address as configuring Physical Machines.

Hyper-V KVP component support data exchange between Host and VMs, but it doesn’t support configuring VMs directly. For your reference:

If you have difficulty to customize the script, I suggest that you initial a new post in The Official Scripting Guys Forum! to get further support there. They are the best resource for scripting related problems.
