Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (WinRM RPC)
With the Windows Remote Management (WinRM) RPC, you can collect information coming from the Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager to update Windows nodes.
Collected items:
- OS information: Returns operating system (OS) information as version, service pack, build and architecture
- Hostnames: Returns host name information to configure the node label
- Interfaces information: Returns interface data to populate the node media access control (MAC) address
- Installed software: Returns installed software and populates the node Common Platform Enumeration (CPE)
- Hotfixes: Returns installed software version updates and checks to see if there are node Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE)s to close
Note:
It is important to filter the strategy nodes because without the
filter, the strategy waits for the timeout of non-Microsoft nodes that are not
reachable. This significantly decreases the performance of the data integration
strategy. If not specified, the port is the default: 5986 if secure sockets layer (SSL) is enabled, 5985 otherwise.
