Running powershell command Test-Netconnect on Windows 2012 server

Question

I am trying to run a PS script on a Windows 2012 server to allow connection to Azure cloud. The script needs to use the cmd Test-NetConnect.

But this is not available on my server. PS version is 3.0.

How do I get this cmd imported on my server so I can connect it to the Azure cloud?

Answer 1

Should it be "Test-NetConnection" which needs module - "nettcpip" imported as prerequisite. I see below document for this command -

Answer 2

@Ben Lan Adding more information $computer = get-content c:\servers.txt
Foreach($computer in $computers){
(Test-connection -computerName $computer -count 1 -quiet) | out-file _filepath c:\gp\test.txt -Append}

If the issue still persists, Please let me know for which azure service are you trying to connect or trying upload any data to Azure blob, Files?
Also share the script, if possible hiding the PI data
