How to configure IIS for PSWeb Authorization Rule, so that specific user / computer and configurationname is mentioned, apart from ps command

Question

Hi,

While configuring PSWeb, we use Add-PswaAuthorizationRule with which we mention Username / Computername and Configurationname. Can I configure the same within IIS instead of PS command ? If yes, How

Kindly advise

Answer 1

Looks like you’re using the PowerShellWebAccess -> Add-PswaAuthorizationRule cmlet to add a new authorization rule to the Windows PowerShell® Web Access authorization rule set. And you want to do the same thing using the IIS Manager, is that correct? In that case, as far as I am aware, IIS manager doesn’t have such feature. Instead, from my perspective, it should be configured at the Windows Server level.

Answer 2

As you have mentioned "it should be configured at the Windows Server level" let me know how to do it ?

Answer 3

As PSWeb Authorization is just an application installed in IIS and has its own configuration logic, you can not configure it with IIS.
