WinRM is built in remote management protocol and also uses SOAP protocol so that the interface of this application is made to interact with the remote servers and devices that use Windows. Also, it interacts with the Windows applications and Operating systems in the device.

The in-built command line tools help in communicating with the hosts through any channels or ports that are in the system. Also, the communication happens through workstations, servers, or any operating system that uses WinRM. If the remote systems or servers’ network is accessible, WinRM can be used to run commands and control the devices. All the servers can be monitored managed or even configured using WinRM.
