Add-VBRNetworkTrafficRule how to target internet ips

[manuel.aigner]

Hi there,

I have to create a lot of limiter rules for many different subnets. To avoid internet upload saturation the target ip range should be "internet" as it is configurable in B&R Console UI.
In Powershell I don't know how to declare "internet" as target. "internet" isn't a valid value and also "null" isn't allowed.

Any suggestions?

Hi Manuel,

I checked the backing code for this cmdlet and indeed it's expecting a valid IP address as a parameter. It is possible to make a bunch of "dummy" rules with the Internet option checked and then edit those rules with Get-VBRNetworkTrafficRule/Set-VBRNetworkTrafficRule, but I'm not sure this saves you too much time ultimately :/ .

Will discuss improvements on this as the use case is pretty clear.
