Provisioning a Static IP
“Context -
Once upon a time in the Data Center, where no DHCP lives; I was forced to get creative. We needed a way to do so in the WinPE environment. ”

Notes from the field....
When imaging (provisioning) in Ivanti with no DHCP u will need to manually add an IP address and DNS using the following after the initial fail.
Get the adapter name
ipconfig /all
Set the IP Address
netsh interface ip set address name="<Enter Adapter Name>" static <Enter IP Address> <Enter Subnet Mask> <Enter Gateway>
Set DNS
netsh interface ip set dns name="<Enter Adapter Name>" static <Enter DNS Server>
Run the following command
x:\windows\system32\startnet.cmd
****During the imaging process but before the first reboot u will need to assign the IP address and DNS again. WinPE is temporary. Two Actions have been created to assign the IP and DNS after the first reboot.
Set Static IP
Set Static DNS
These can be modified with variables to be used more efficiently in the future.
