How to Export settings

You can easy export all the output of the commands as a JSON-file with the following CmdLets:

  • ConvertTo-JSON
  • Set-Content

As an example run Test-PsNetDig:

Test-PsNetDig sbb.ch

Succeeded   : True
InputString : sbb.ch
Destination : sbb.ch
IpV4Address : 194.150.245.142
IpV6Address : 2a00:4bc0:ffff:ffff::c296:f58e
TimeMs      : 47

Convert the result from Test-PsNetDig to a JSON-Object:

Test-PsNetDig sbb.ch | ConvertTo-Json

{
  "Succeeded": true,
  "InputString": "sbb.ch",
  "Destination": "sbb.ch",
  "IpV4Address": {
    "AddressFamily": 2,
    "ScopeId": null,
    "IsIPv6Multicast": false,
    "IsIPv6LinkLocal": false,
    "IsIPv6SiteLocal": false,
    "IsIPv6Teredo": false,
    "IsIPv4MappedToIPv6": false,
    "Address": 2398459586
  },
  "IpV6Address": {
    "AddressFamily": 23,
    "ScopeId": 0,
    "IsIPv6Multicast": false,
    "IsIPv6LinkLocal": false,
    "IsIPv6SiteLocal": false,
    "IsIPv6Teredo": false,
    "IsIPv4MappedToIPv6": false,
    "Address": null
  },
  "TimeMs": 4
}

Export the JSON-Object from Test-PsNetDig to a file:

Test-PsNetDig sbb.ch | ConvertTo-Json | Set-Content D:\PsNetDig.json
