Configure WinRM Service
-----------------------

Now we'll configure the WinRM service. We will use the elevated PowerShell
session we used earlier. (If you have closed it, just open another one by
right-clicking the **PowerShell** task bar icon and choosing **Run as
Administrator**.) In this PowerShell session run the following cmdlets
exactly as shown under :ref:`WinRM Configuration<winrm_configuration>`.

As noted above, we do not need to do anything to configure firewall
exceptions as those are configured automatically by the **Enable-PsRemoting**
cmdlet. So the next step is to install the software prerequisites.
