IP Address and Domain Restriction by Powershell

Question

I try to automatic a manual process in IIS. For one hour, we want to restrict all use to access one application. I search and test for today and cannot find a solution. Please help me out. All I need are at attached file. I just wonder if I can do it by Power Shells and schedule it instead of manually do it. Thank you.

Answer 1

Verify that you have the scripts and tools installed.

Add a deny entry.

Open Configuration editor and navigate to system.webServer/security/ipSecurity. You should have count=1.Click on Edit Items.

Make a trivial change to the ip address. Then close the popup.

Then click on Generate Script. Copy the appcmd or Powershell statements from the Script Dialog popup.

Answer 2

Without knowing what you've already tried and failed at it's hard to know if anything anyone will recommend will be met with "already tried that!".

So, how about this: edit-an-existing-iis-ip-restriction-with-powershell

Answer 3

Thanks for your quick response. I had tried that before and it seems not work for me?

What I need are:
(1) Go go IIS (local host) / the web application.
(2) "IP Address and Domain Restriction"
(3) Add "Deny Entry"
(4) "Specific IP Address"
(5) Enter "0.0.0.0"
(6) "OK"
(7) Remove the entry one hour later.

All these steps are manually do them now. I just wonder if I can use Powershell and schedule to do them?

Answer 4

I play around IIS configuration editor. But I cannot "Add Deny Entry" and enter "Specific IP Address"? (Please see the attachment). When I do it manually, I normally "Add Deny Entry" in an application and enter 0.0.0.0 as "specific ip address". But I cannot see they are available?

We just do it for one application/site, not for whole IIS (all sites). I am looking for web configure file now.
