Can I add range of ports in netsh add urlacl?

Question

I use the following command to allow listening of specific HTTP ports:

netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:[port]/ user=DOMAIN\UserName

But if I need to open a range of ports, can I setup a single rule?

Answer 1

I didn't find any way to specify a range so I went with using built-in FOR command:

for /L %i in ([port_start],1,[port_end]) do netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:%i/ user=DOMAIN\UserName

You can get more info on the FOR command by using 'FOR /?' in command prompt. /L happened to be the one that worked for me because it builds a set of numbers given start, stop and step values.
