I have n number of servers on which I have setup a rule "Office Ip" for allowing access to server from my local machine.

Now I want to add my local static ip in "Office Ip" rule setup on every server of mine using a command. For this I will have to do following:

  1. command to login to every server
  2. update my local static ip in the rule "Office Ip" rule using command

Like wise I want to allow it on n number of my servers.

How can I do it?

Please refer the diagramatic attachment for clear understanding

    This answer in the link should accomplish the task.

    powershell-script-to-add-multiple-remote-address-to-firewall-rules

    Put whatever code you create into a script block and use the script block in an Invoke-Command. Provide the Invoke-Command with a list of machine names and the necessary credentials to log on and to modify the firewall rule.

    However, using a GPO would probably be the preferred way to accomplish the task, especially if these machines are domain members.
