Enable PS Remoting
------------------

We'll start with the PS Proxy for the on-premises components, ``pxproxy01``.
The first task is to enable PowerShell Remoting. Since this is a Windows
Server installation, PowerShell Remoting should already be enabled. Let's
confirm that:

1. Open an elevated PowerShell session by right-clicking on the
   PowerShell icon in the task bar and choosing **Run as Administrator**.

2. Run the cmdlet **New-PSSession** with no arguments. If PowerShell
   Remoting is enabled the cmdlet should return information about the new
   session. (If we were running a client version of Windows, such as Windows
   10 Professional Edition, PowerShell Remoting would not be enabled by
   default. We would have to manually enable it with the **Enable-PsRemoting**
   cmdlet.)
   
   Do not close the PowerShell window - we will use it again in a later step.
