Let’s assume you want to return IP addresses from all network cards but separate them by address type. Here is an approach that uses solely Select-Object:
function Get-IPAddress { Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration | Where-Object { $_.IPEnabled -eq $true } | # add two new properties for IPv4 and IPv6 at the end Select-Object -Property Description, MacAddress, IPAddress, IPAddressV4, IPAddressV6 | ForEach-Object { # add IP addresses that match the filter to the new properties $_.IPAddressV4 = $_.IPAddress | Where-Object { $_ -like '*.*.*.*' } $_.IPAddressV6 = $_.IPAddress | Where-Object { $_ -notlike '*.*.*.*' } # return the object $_ } | # remove the property that holds all IP addresses Select-Object -Property Description, MacAddress, IPAddressV4, IPAddressV6 } Get-IPAddress
The result looks similar to this:
Description MacAddress IPAddressV4 IPAddressV6 ----------- ---------- ----------- ----------- Realtek USB GbE Family Controller #3 00:E0:4C:F4:A9:35 10.4.121.75 fe80::8109:a41e:192b:367
