batch file

Hi

I am writing a batch file to change from static to dynamic ip addresses

My first attempt works fine and you can see the code below

@echo off
ECHO Enter 1 for static or 2 for DCHP and press enter when finished
ECHO ...
set /p var1= value =
IF %var1%==1 (netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" static 12.12.12.20 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.1 1) ELSE (IF %var1%==2 (netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" dhcp) ELSE ( ECHO Please run the program again and enter the value 1 or 2 Thanks ))


The problem I have is when I want to add and option to manually set the static IP address. When the batch file is run the var2 var3 and var4 are set to empty. What I need to happen is the netsh command to use the new values that I will enter. The code is below

ECHO Enter 1 for static , 2 for DCHP and press or 3 to change default address enter when finished

ECHO ...
set /p var1= value =
IF %var1%==3 ( ECHO "Please enter IP address"
set /p var2= value =
ECHO Please enter Netmask
set /p var3= value =
ECHO PLease Enter Gateway
set /p var4= value =
netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" static %var2% %var3% %var4%)

IF %var1%==1 (netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" static 12.12.12.20 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.1 1) ELSE (IF %var1%==2 (netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" dhcp) ELSE ( ECHO Please run the program again and enter the value 1 or 2 Thanks ))
sleep 1

Thanks
