Getting IP address while using Test-Connection - powershell

Question

I am trying to add the IP address to this script, it would be perfect if I could get this to work. Any help is greatly appreciated.
The input files has host names, and I like to get the IP address into the csv please.
$servers = Get-content "servers.txt"
$collection = $()
foreach ($server in $servers)
{
$status = #{ "ServerName" = $server; "TimeStamp" = (Get-Date -f s);"IP" = what to put here? }
if (Test-Connection $server -Count 1 -ea 0 -Quiet)
{
$status["Results"] = "Up"
}
else
{
$status["Results"] = "Down"
}
New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property $status -OutVariable serverStatus
$collection += $serverStatus
}
$collection | Export-Csv -LiteralPath .\ServerStatus.csv -NoTypeInformation

Answer 1

Using -Quiet would suppress the information you are looking for. Remove the quiet and instead capture the results in a variable you can then query for both success and the ipaddress.
$status = #{ "ServerName" = $server; "TimeStamp" = (Get-Date -f s)}
$result = Test-Connection $server -Count 1 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
if ($result)
{
$status.Results = "Up"
$status.IP = ($result.IPV4Address).IPAddressToString
}
else
{
$status.Results = "Down"
$status.IP = "N/A"
}
I am unsure if this logic would produce misleading information but I am playing around with it just in case.
If you have already made the switch to IPv6 then you might be more interested in ($result.IPV6Address).IPAddressToString

Thank you, Matt, you helped me work through my issue.
I found that I wasn't able to use (.) in the new variables. Could be my own misunderstanding. I post this that it may help others with my same issue.
Based on your answer plus an example of how I had to adjust.
$status = #{ "ServerName" = $server; "TimeStamp" = (Get-Date -f s)}
$result = Test-Connection $server -Count 1 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
if ($result)
{
$StatusResult = "Up"
$statusIP = ($result.IPV4Address).IPAddressToString
}
