Description

The powershell script configures the following winrm settings on your windows client or server.
Use at your own risk.

  • Configure WinRM Windows Service
    Make sure the service is enabled and startup is automatic
  • Configure Windows Firewall
    Allow traffic on port 5986 by creating rule ‘Windows Remote Management (HTTPS)’
  • WinRM Listener Configuration and SSL Certificates
    Only allow encrypted traffic on port 5986. If possible, use the Cert from Domain CA (this has to be configured manually of course). If no CA Cert is available, create a self-signed cert (friendly name: ‘OpensightWinRMHostCert’)
  • WinRM Authentication Provider Configuration
    Make sure basic authentication is switched of and credssp is switched on
