PowerShell tool that builds a batch file to execute encoded PowerShell command. Resulting batch file can be run on client workstation to automatically configure—Cisco Meraki Client VPN compatible—Built-in VPN client on machines running Windows 8.1/2012R2 and better.
This is PowerShell, run from PowerShell 😉
Given parameters Name, ServerAddress, PreSharedKey, and optionally Path builds a file ConfigureVpnClient_%NAME%.cmd.
If you don’t specify Path the resulting batch file will be saved in subdirectory dist of the script directory.
In addition to specifying parameters on the command line, this tool takes input from the pipeline, which allows it to read required parameters from a text file, CSV file, even SQL database. It can be completely automated.
Import entries from CSV file and pipe to BuildVpnClientConfig.ps1. Check out examples\clientlist.csv for reference.
Import-Csv .\examples\clientlist.csv | .\BuildVpnClientConfig.ps1
Specify parameters on the command line
.\BuildVpnClientConfig.ps1 -Name 'The Roman Empire' `
-ServerAddress 'vpn.rome.com' -PreSharedKey 'veritas-NUMQUAM-perit-&%#DC' -Path 'ClientVPN'
