On a Remote Site
How to test WMI communication on the Windows Server from a remote site.
I used the computer name: WIN-MMKMP1PLMLI, but I could use the IP Address from the WMI Windows Server.
IMPORTANT: If you have the Firewall Outbound policy then the remote site can query the Windows Server (see firewall outbound How to Configure WMI on the Windows Server).
