Description

The Add-SqlAvailabilityGroupListenerStaticIp cmdlet adds a static IP address to an existing availability group listener configuration. You can specify either an IPv4 address and subnet mask or an IPv6 address. Run this cmdlet on the server instance that hosts the primary replica.

Module requirements: version 21+ on PowerShell 5.1; version 22+ on PowerShell 7.x.

Examples

Example 1: Add an IPv4 address

PS C:\> Add-SqlAvailabilityGroupListenerStaticIp -Path "SQLSERVER:\SQL\PrimaryServer\InstanceName\AvailabilityGroups\MainAG\AvailabilityGroupListeners\MainListener" -StaticIp "192.169.0.1/255.255.252.0"

This command adds a static IPv4 address to the availability group listener 'MainListener' on the availability group 'MainAG'. This IPv4 address serves as the virtual IP address of the listener on the subnet 255.255.252.0. If the availability group spans multiple subnets, add a static IP address for each subnet to the listener.

Run this cmdlet on the server instance that hosts the primary replica.

Example 2: Add an IPv6 address

PS C:\> Add-SqlAvailabilityGroupListenerStaticIp -Path "SQLSERVER:\SQL\PrimaryServer\InstanceName\AvailabilityGroups\MainAG\AvailabilityGroupListeners\MainListener" -StaticIp "2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334"

This command adds a static IPv6 address to the listener 'MainListener' on the availability group 'MainAG'.

Example 3: Create a script that adds an IPv4 address

PS C:\> Add-SqlAvailabilityGroupListenerStaticIp -Path "SQLSERVER:\SQL\PrimaryServer\InstanceName\AvailabilityGroups\MainAg\AvailabilityGroupListeners\MainListener" -StaticIp "192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0" -Script

This creates a Transact-SQL script that adds a static IPv4 address to the availability group listener 'MainListener' on the availability group 'MainAG'.

Parameters

-AccessToken

The access token used to authenticate to SQL Server, as an alternative to user/password or Windows Authentication.

This can be used, for example, to connect to SQL Azure DB and SQL Azure Managed Instance using a Service Principal or a Managed Identity.

The parameter to use can be either a string representing the token or a PSAccessToken object as returned by running Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceUrl https://database.windows.net.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:PSObject
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:SwitchParameter
Aliases:cf
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Encrypt

The encryption type to use when connecting to SQL Server.

This value maps to the Encrypt property SqlConnectionEncryptOption on the SqlConnection object of the Microsoft.Data.SqlClient driver.

In v22 of the module, the default is Optional (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be 'Mandatory', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:String
Accepted values:Mandatory, Optional, Strict
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HostNameInCertificate

The host name to be used in validating the SQL Server TLS/SSL certificate. You must pass this parameter if your SQL Server instance is enabled for Force Encryption and you want to connect to an instance using hostname/shortname. If this parameter is omitted then passing the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) to -ServerInstance is necessary to connect to a SQL Server instance enabled for Force Encryption.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject

Specifies the listener, as an AvailabilityGroupListener object, that this cmdlet modifies.

Type:AvailabilityGroupListener[]
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Path

Specifies the path of the availability group listener that this cmdlet modifies. If you do not specify this parameter, this cmdlet uses the current working location.

Type:String[]
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Script

Indicates that this cmdlet returns a Transact-SQL script that performs the task that this cmdlet performs.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StaticIp

Specifies an array of addresses. Each address entry is either an IPv4 address and subnet mask or an IPv6 address. The listener listens on the addresses that this parameter specifies.

Type:String[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-TrustServerCertificate

Indicates whether the channel will be encrypted while bypassing walking the certificate chain to validate trust.

In v22 of the module, the default is $true (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be '$false', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.

Type:SwitchParameter
