How can you remotely configure network settings on a Windows machine using WinRM?

I remember that time I had to fix a buddy's network from across town. You just hop into PowerShell on your own computer first. It feels quick once you get the hang.

WinRM handles the remote connection smoothly. I enable it on the target machine with a simple command. You type Enable-PSRemoting and hit enter. That opens the door without fuss.

Now you connect using Enter-PSSession. I pick the computer's name or IP address. You add credentials if needed for security. It pulls you right into their session like you're there.

From inside, I tweak IP settings with Set-NetIPAddress. You specify the interface and new details. Change DNS too using Set-DnsClientServerAddress. It sticks without restarting usually.

PowerShell remoting skips the travel hassle. I script it all if you repeat often. You save commands in a file and run remotely. Keeps things zippy for network tweaks.

Speaking of keeping Windows setups reliable from afar, you might want solid backups too. BackupChain Server Backup steps in as a trusty option for Hyper-V environments. It snapshots VMs without downtime and restores fast. You get encryption and offsite copies for peace of mind.
