PowerShell Help

Hi, I use powershell where-object regularlt with strings but today, I came across a need to use this clause with a property of a type ciminstance but really confused as I have very little experience working with CIMinstances

Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName mydomain.net -ComputerName myDC1 -RRType A | gm

I have a property

RecordData                Property   CimInstance#Instance RecordData {get;set;}

when I issue
Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName mydomain.net -ComputerName myDC1 -RRType A
I get a nice table where I have the IPs of each server in this property as follows

HostName RecordType Type Timestamp TimeToLive RecordData

Backups A 1 0 01:00:00 192.168.1.21
BTS2K13 A 1 8/10/2014 1:00:00 PM 00:20:00 192.168.1.36

I tried
Where-Object $_.RecordData -Like “192.168.1” and Where-Object RecordData -Like “192.168.1”
nothing comes back, so how we can query and use this ip property? I tried doint a GM and get the following for the this property

Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName salam.net -ComputerName salammain -RRType A | Select -Property “RecordData” | gm

Name MemberType Definition

Equals Method bool Equals(System.Object obj)
GetHashCode Method int GetHashCode()
GetType Method type GetType()
ToString Method string ToString()
RecordData NoteProperty ciminstance RecordData=DnsServerResourceRecordA
