Identify

Using wsman identify is the simplest way to ensure correct client-server communication.
Run it as
wsman identify -h <hostname> -P <port> -u <user> -p <pass>

wsman identify -h localhost -P 5985 -u wsman -p secret

Enumerate

Enumeration requires a [[resource path]] to address the correct CIM
class
wsman enumerate -h localhost -P 5985 -u wsman -p secret http://sblim.sf.net/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/Linux_ComputerSystem

This call will return an XML representation of the matching resoure(s).
