About WinRM Connection Ports

WinRM uses a set of default ports for communication. Depending on the WinRM version, the following port numbers are used:
•
WinRM 1.1 and earlier: The default HTTP port is 80, and the default HTTPS port is 443.
•
WinRM 2.0 and later: The default HTTP port is 5985, and the default HTTPS port is 5986.
After issuing the winrm quickconfig command, the listener port number can be determined using the winrm enum winrm/config/listener command. For example:
> winrm enum winrm/config/listener
Listener
Address = *
Transport = <HTTP|HTTPS>
Port = <port>
Hostname
Enabled = true
URLPrefix = wsman
CertificateThumbprint
ListeningOn = <ip_addresses>

Troubleshooting

If you have verified all of the WinRM configuration information and are still experiencing connection issues, the following techniques may be helpful for diagnosing the problem.

Reviewing Application Event Logs

WinRM logs activity to an event log on the target machine. This includes both success and failure messages for authentication.
To view application event logs:
1
On the target machine, right-click My Computer and select Manage.
2
In the navigation tree on the left, choose System Tools > Event Viewer > Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > Windows Remote Management > Operational.
The default Operational log contains the most common events.
To enable additional debug logging information:
1
Click View.
2
Click Show Analytic and Debug Logs.
3
Right-click the log file you want to view.
4
Select Enable Log.

Enabling connection type debugging

If the only information you are interested in is the types of connections that are being established, there is a command-line setting that enables logging the connection types.
Run the Agent Manager with the following switch:
-Dquest.debug.windowsinfo.types
 
* 
NOTE: This logging occurs every time a connection is established and can be very verbose. It is recommended for debugging purposes only.
