How to configure Windows Firewall, Wired and Wireless Network using command prompt

Using Netsh, you'll be able to display and modify the network configuration, either locally or remotely. It also provides command-line alternative capability to modify and add programs and services into Windows firewall. In addition to that, Netsh can save the configuration script for archival, backup and reference purposes.

Let’s focus on these top features of the command-line utility.

NETWORK CONFIGURATION (Windows 7/Vista/XP)

How to see and inspect the current tcp/ip settings using Netsh

Netsh interface ipv4 show config or C:\Windows\system32>netsh netsh>interface netsh interface>ip netsh interface ipv4>show config

Using Netsh to backup the tcp/ip configuration of your computer

netsh interface dump > c:\backup\lanconfig.dat or netsh -c interface dump > c:\backup\networkconfig.txt

The two commands saves the current configuration into a text file

How to Restore your previous network configuration using netsh

cd c:\backup netsh exec lanconfig.dat or netsh -f c:\backup\networkconfig.txt

How to Configure Network Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses using Netsh (look at the arrows of the images above)

Using Static Address

Command Pattern (Syntax)

netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" static ipaddr subnetmask gateway metric

Sample

netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" static 192.168.0.31 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1 1

Using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Server to obtain the IP address automatically

netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" dhcp

Configuring DNS Server using Netsh (Please see the picture above)

netsh interface ip set dns "Local Area Connection" static 192.168.0.1 Dynamically obtain the ip-address netsh interface ip set dns "Local Area Connection" static dhcp
