The Set-WSManQuickConfig cmdlet configures the computer to receive Windows PowerShell remote commands that are sent

2. Sets the WinRM service startup type to automatic.
3. Creates a listener to accept requests on any IP address. By default, the transport is HTTP.
4. Enables a firewall exception for WinRM traffic .

To run this cmdlet in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and later versions of Windows, you must start Windows Pow
erShell with the "Run as administrator" option.
