Where in the if condition, in powershell am I wrong?

Question

PowerShell

Check the instance firewall rules for ip:

PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-NetFirewallAddressFilter | where RemoteAddress -eq 10.15.0.71 | select InstanceID

InstanceID
----------
{48F93E73-0AE8-476E-ADA3-86AC90361AFF}

The same but for the port:

PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-NetFirewallPortFilter | where RemotePort -eq 12440-12499 | select InstanceID

InstanceID
----------
{48F93E73-0AE8-476E-ADA3-86AC90361AFF}

This is the same rule, so the InstanceID matches.
Now I drive all this into variables and check what I have in the variables:

PS C:\Users\Administrator> $IP=Get-NetFirewallAddressFilter | where RemoteAddress -eq 10.15.0.71 | select InstanceID
PS C:\Users\Administrator> $Port=Get-NetFirewallPortFilter | where RemotePort -eq 12440-12499 | select InstanceID
PS C:\Users\Administrator> $IP

InstanceID
----------
{48F93E73-0AE8-476E-ADA3-86AC90361AFF}


PS C:\Users\Administrator> $Port

InstanceID
----------
{48F93E73-0AE8-476E-ADA3-86AC90361AFF}

Everything seems to match.
Now I use if:

PS C:\Users\Administrator> if ($IP -eq $Port) {
>>    Write-Host "Совпадает"
>> }
>> else{
>>    Write-Host "Не совпадает"
>> }
>>
Не совпадает

Why "does not match"?

Answer 1

try like this:

PS C:\Users\Administrator> if ($IP.InstanceID -eq $Port.InstanceID) {
>>    Write-Host "Совпадает"
>> }
>> else{
>>    Write-Host "Не совпадает"
>> }
