Description
The Remove-NetIPAddress cmdlet deletes IP address and the configuration properties of that IP address. To remove a specific IP address object, be sure to use the IPv4 Address parameter or IPv6 Address parameter. Other parameters will remove all IP addresses with the matching property.
Examples
EXAMPLE 1
PS C:\>New-NetIPAddress -InterfaceIndex 12 -IPAddress 192.168.0.1
The remove cmdlet then removes it.
PS C:\>Remove-NetIPAddress -IPAddress 192.168.0.1
This example adds a new IP address.
EXAMPLE 2
PS C:\>Get-NetIPAddress -IPAddress 192.168.0.1 | Remove-NetIPAddress
This example provides an alternative method to EXAMPLE 1 that removes all of the IP addresses that have an IP address of 192.168.0.1.
EXAMPLE 3
PS C:\>Remove-NetIPAddress -PrefixOrigin Manual
This example removes all of the IP addresses that have a manually configured prefix origin.
Parameters
-AddressFamily
Removes all IP addresses that have a specific IP address family. A read-only property. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- IPv4: IPv4 address information.
-- IPv6: IPv6 address information.
Type: | AddressFamily[] |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |

-AddressState
Removes all the IP addresses that have a specific duplicate address detection (DAD) state for an IPv4 and IPv6 address. A read-only property. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- Invalid: IP address configuration information for addresses that are not valid and will not be used.
-- Tentative: IP address configuration information for addresses that are not used for communication, as the uniqueness of those IP addresses is being verified.
-- Duplicate: IP address configuration information for addresses for which a duplicate IP address has been detected and the current IP address will not be used.
-- Deprecated: IP address configuration information for addresses that will no longer be used to establish new connections, but will continue to be used with existing connections.
-- Preferred: IP address configuration information for addresses that are valid and available for use.
