Managed Reference for WinRM Windows PowerShell Command Classes

Windows Remote Management 2.0 (WinRM) can use Windows PowerShell cmdlets for system management. Windows PowerShell cmdlets enable an administrator to configure WinRM and to get data or manage resources.

Windows PowerShell cmdlets for WinRM provide the same functionality as the winrm command line utility. However, Windows PowerShell also does the following:

• Automates WinRM tasks in an extensible and management-oriented scripting language.
• Provides a single tool for all management tasks.

See Windows PowerShell for more information.

WS-Management Windows PowerShell Classes

Namespace: Microsoft.WsMan.Management

Assembly: System.Management.Automation

The following WinRM command classes are implemented by Windows PowerShell. These classes are included in this software development kit (SDK) for completeness only. The members of these classes cannot be used directly nor should they be used to derive other classes.

Class	Description
ConnectWSManCommand	Connects to the WinRM service on a remote computer. See the Connect-WSMan cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
DisableWSManCredSSPCommand	Disables CredSSP authentication on a client. See the Disable-WSManCredSSP cmdlet for detailed information about the parameters and for examples.
DisconnectWSManCommand	Disconnects from the WinRM service on a remote computer. See the Disconnect-WSMan cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
EnableWSManCredSSPCommand	Enables CredSSP authentication on the client. See the Enable-WSManCredSSP cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
GetWSManCredSSPCommand	Gets the CredSSP-related configuration for the client. See the Get-WSManCredSSP cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
GetWSManInstanceCommand	Displays management information for a resource instance specified by a Resource URI. See the Get-WSManInstance cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
InvokeWSManActionCommand	Invokes an action on the target object specified by the Resource URI and selectors. See the Invoke-WSManAction cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
NewWSManInstanceCommand	Creates a new instance of a management resource. See the New-WSManInstance cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
NewWSManSessionOptionCommand	Creates a WinRM Session option hash table to use as input parameters for the following WSMan cmdlets: Get-WSManInstance, Set-WSManInstance, Invoke-WSManAction, and Connect-WSMan. See the New-WSManSessionOption for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
RemoveWSManInstanceCommand	Deletes a management resource instance. See the Remove-WSManInstance cmdlet for examples and detailed information about the parameters.
