I have a couple ideas in mind that I think might be the best case Which is what I presumed but I was hoping that others who monitor this forum had some ideas from their own experiences that they could share, and maybe someone will. So I think the answer I take from you is that there really is no built-in easy way to handle automating the application of static IPs and that I'll have to create a custom process which leverages the use of computer variables Jason | | | Twitter thanks for the feedback.

Jason | | | Twitter key to your scenario is not getting the IP address to the system, that can easily be done by populating the appropriate task sequence variables: basically, every field in every built-in task can set at run time by populating the appropriate task sequence Because DHCP is the preferred and nearly ubiquitous answer to this issue, no one has built anything to take its place in ConfigMgr AFAIK. Then taking that information, you will have to build the logic for assigning these IPs essentially duplicating what DHCPĭoes. Unique questions that you must answer (among others) because they are unique to your environment, implementation, and requirements.

The real complexity is actually choosing an IP address to use? How do you know which IP address to use for which computer? Does your spreadsheet also contain MAC addresses? Is it random? Should you (or the task sequence) just pick the next available? Howĭoes it know what the next available is and how do you track which ones aren't available? What if your spreadsheet contains addresses already in use? Where are you going to store the spreadsheet? How do you handle simultaneous access?These are all Populating these variable can be done from a script or any COM aware tool via the COM object during the TS itself. The key to your scenario is not getting the IP address to the system, that can easily be done by populating the appropriate task sequence variables: basically, every field in every built-in task can set at run time by populating the appropriate task sequence Please let me know if I'm wrong about anything, if I'm approaching this the wrong way or I'm overlooking anything.

Is there a way to update this information? Just Delete from the collection and re-import using the This can the MAC addresses associated with the names during the Computer Association import to change.

Now I'll admit that I'm still a newbie with this for the most part so I'm pretty ignorant as to where the imported Computer Association data resides or how to access it. One method I have in mind is to use the Computer Association node to import machines and place them in a collection then leverage the TS variablesĪssociated with the Apply Network Settings task using a script that would read from a spreadsheet with the IP assignments which correspond to the names of the machines imported from the computer association which I'd run in the form of a package during I don't know of a way to bulk add a list of static IP settings to this task and somehow associate them to a machine and don't believe it's possible. The "Apply Network Settings" has an option to use static IP addresses, but I'd never get my image out before the end of the summer if I had to duplicate this task 4500 times, manually enter settings and customize each to apply to a specific machine. But I need something to handle this for new bare metal installs. I have about 4500 desktops which all have static IP addresses and also I know SCCM has an option to preserve the network configuration during OSD and that works fine.

I'm trying to include a task in my OSD TS for Windows 7, to apply static IP addresses.
