Connect-WSMan

Short description
Connects to the WinRM service on a remote computer.

Syntax


Description
The Connect-WSMan cmdlet connects to the WinRM service on a remote computer, and it establishes a persistent 
connection to the remote computer. You can use this cmdlet within the context of the WSMan provider to connect to the 
WinRM service on a remote computer. However, you can also use this cmdlet to connect to the WinRM service on a remote 
computer before you change to the WSMan provider. The remote computer will appear in the root directory of the WSMan 
provider.


Note: Explicit credentials are required when the client and server computers are in different domains or workgroups.


For information about how to disconnect from the WinRM service on a remote computer, see Disconnect-WSMan.
