AOVPN IPAddress

[karljvincent]

Hello,

I am using aovpn currently as our vpn solution and was hoping to display the devices aovpn ip address using rainmeter. I have been able to do this by specifying the adapter name exactly but the issue is we have more than one adapter name used in our estate depending on the version of the vpn they have installed.

This is how I am currently doing it;

Code: Select all

[variables]
AdapterName=vpn name

[MeasureVPNIP]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=SysInfo
SysInfoType=IP_ADDRESS
SysinfoData=#AdapterName#

This displays under the logs that VPN Ip address of that adapter therefore I am able to print this into rainmeter;

I have looked into using a wildcard for the vpn name as the format is <vpnname>v1... v2... etc but it appears wildcards don't work with the sysinfo skin.

I would be grateful if anybody has any suggestions?

Thanks,
Karl

Have you tried using SysInfoData=Best instead of the actual name? This will require adding DynamicVariables=1 to the measure.

If this does not work and you need to get the name with wildcards, it can be done but it is much more complicated.

Yes we already are using the =Best snippet to deploy the local LAN IP address, we were hoping to deploy this as well as the VPN address
