Easier way of retrieving an Azure VM's Public IP address - azure

Question

Using the name/resource group of a specific VM, I'm trying to get the VM's public IP address.
This code works but it seems unwieldy in comparison to other AzureRM cmdlets.
$VM = Get-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup -Name MyVMName
$NIC = $VM.NetworkProfile.NetworkInterfaces[0].Id -replace '.*\/'
$NI = Get-AzureRmNetworkInterface -Name $NIC -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup
$NIIC = Get-AzureRmNetworkInterfaceIpConfig -NetworkInterface $NI
$PIP = $NIIC.PublicIpAddress.Id -replace '.*\/'
$PIP = Get-AzureRmPublicIpAddress -Name $PIP -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup
$PIP.IpAddress
Is there a quicker/easier/shorter way of accessing this information?

Answer 1

As far as i know, Not Yet for PowerShell. But you can use Azure CLI
az vm list-ip-addresses -n <VMName> -g <ResourceGroup> | grep publicIpAddresses

Answer 2

Try the Azure CLI command:
az vm list-ip-addresses -g groupName -n vmName --query "[].virtualMachine.network.publicIpAddresses[*].ipAddress" -o tsv
Or the PowerShell command just filter with your vm name:
$ipAddress= (Get-AzureRmPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName groupName | Where-Object { $_.IpConfiguration.Id -like "*vmName*" }
)
$ipAddress.IpAddress

Answer 3

It's possible. This script will list all VMs PIP in your Azure cloud.
OLD
$VM_int = Get-AzureRmResource -ODataQuery "`$filter=resourcetype 'Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines'"
foreach($int in $VM_int){
$vmName = $int.Name
$ipAddress= (Get-AzureRmPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName $int.ResourceGroupName | Where-Object { $_.IpConfiguration.Id -like "*$vmName*" })
$vmName + ' --- ' + $ipAddress.IpAddress
}
UPDATE
Unfortunately, Get-AzVM doesn't provide the Public IP address of VM, but we can scrape its Network Interface Name and make a wildcard search of it through all assigned Public IPs which NIC name are matched.
It's not fast but will provide with correct results.
$array = #()
foreach ($vm in Get-AzVM) {
$vmNicName = $vm.NetworkProfile.NetworkInterfaces.Id.Split("/")[8]
$ipAddress = Get-AzPublicIpAddress | Where-Object {$_.IpConfiguration.Id -like "*$vmNicName*"}
if ($null -ne $ipAddress) {
$pipInput = New-Object psobject -Property #{
VM = $vm.Name
PublicIP = $ipAddress.IpAddress
}
$array += $pipInput
}
}

The way i got the value for my Linux VM's was using below code.
Get-AzureRmPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName <yourRG> -Name <yourVMName> | Select-Object {$_.IpAddress}
This will return something of this sort:
$_.IpAddress
------------
52.170.56.60

Answer 5

This outputs a bit of information however the public IP address is in there.
Get-AzPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup | Where-Object {$_.name -like "*MyVMName*" }
Or you can do this to just get the IP address:
Get-AzPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup | Where-Object {$_.name -like "*MyVMName*" } | Select-Object { $_.IpAddress }
Output is like:
$_.IpAddress
--------------
13.255.162.33

Answer 6

You can also match the AzPublicIpAddress IpConfiguration.Id with the VM's NetworkInterfaces.Id:
Get-AzPublicIpAddress | ?{$_.IpConfiguration.Id -match "$((Get-AzVM -Name $computername).NetworkProfile.NetworkInterfaces.Id).*" }

Answer 7

#Get the VM object
$vm = Get-AzVM -Name $vmName -Status
#Get name of network adapter object attached to VM
$NetworkInterfaceName = $vm.NetworkProfile.NetworkInterfaces.Id.Split("/") | Select -Last 1
#Get network adaptor object attached to VM
$NetworkInterfaceObject = Get-AzNetworkInterface -Name $NetworkInterfaceName
#Get public IP Address object name attached to network adaptor object
$ipObjectName = $NetworkInterfaceObject.IpConfigurations.PublicIpAddress.Id.Split("/") | Select -Last 1
#get publivc IP Address attached to public IP Address object
$ipObject = Get-AzPublicIpAddress -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $ipObjectName
Write-Output $ipObject.IpAddress

Answer 8

Yet another method from within a Linux VM.
First, install the Azure command-line tools in the VM, see Azure docs
Second, execute the following in a shell on the VM:
az network public-ip list --query "[?dnsSettings.domainNameLabel=='MY_VM']"
where MY_VM is (hopefully) the host name of your VM. The command returns a multiline JSON string which is a list. Example is shown below:
[
{
"dnsSettings": {
"domainNameLabel": "MY_VM",
"fqdn": "my_vm.westeurope.cloudapp.azure.com"
},
"etag": "W/\"some_uuid...\"",
...
"ipAddress": "AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD",
},
...
]
How to parse the FQDN and the public IP out of this is left as an exercise to the reader :-)
