Best Practice: Remote Commands

PowerShell Help
1

Is there a best practice for running cmdlets against a remote computer?

For example:

Get-NetAdapter -CimSession $Session ...
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $Session -Scriptblock { Get-NetAdapter }

Is either of these “better” than the other, or does it come down to personal preference?

Thanks,
Des

Those use slightly different protocols. Aside from that, the former doesn’t work in Core, I don’t think.

Core has new-cimsession (windows only). Core doesn’t have get-netadapter.

Thanks. Going to rework a few modules to use only the ICM then.
