Edit a transport rule with PowerShell

I have a transport rule that contains a large number of whitelisted IP addresses.  I'm trying to remove the obsolete IP addresses from this list using PS.

 

From what I have seen so far it can be done in PS with the Set-TransportRule cmdlet.

 

Set-TransportRule -Identity "<Name of Rule>" -SenderIPRanges xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 

 

What I cannot seem to find is switch that will remove that IP address from the list.  is it as simple as using $False or -Remove?  I have not tried to run the command in case it removes all of the IP addresses in the rule.

    In general, you should be able to use the following syntax:

     

    Set-TransportRule blabla -SenderIpRanges @{Remove="1.2.3.5"}

     

    However, it doesn't seem to work as expected in this case, it nullifies the whole object. So your other option is to "manually" export the list to notepad/Excel and paste it back with the IPs added/removed as needed.
