try this:

set myvar=10.0.0.1 
echo %myvar%

The /A switch specifies that the string to the right of the equal sign is a numerical expression that is evaluated. The expression evaluator Note: no spaces around "=" sign

Get rid of the /A, then it will work. 

C:\>help set

Just don't use /A, its for numerical expressions

set myvar=10.0.0.1
echo %myvar%
//10.0.0.1

Can you put quotation marks around the ip address? "10.0.0.1"
