Hello Thank you for your question and reaching out. I can understand you are having query\issues related to WinRM ports. Please note that Default Ports Specifies the ports that the WinRM service uses for either HTTP or HTTPS. WinRM 2.0: The default HTTP port is 5985. The default HTTPS port is 5986. So you do not need to change this ports and by default WinRM listen to this ports Reference : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winrm/installation-and-configuration-for-windows-remote-management https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/13178.fsrm-port-5985-must-be-allowed-through-the-windows-firewall-for-access-denied-assistance.aspx --If the reply is helpful, please Upvote and Accept as answer--
