1 00:00:00,340 --> 00:00:01,860 [Autogenerated] So let's go back into our 2 00:00:01,860 --> 00:00:03,760 environment on Well, first, look at how 3 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,610 we can modify Sim sessions using the 4 00:00:06,610 --> 00:00:09,140 options once we've done that, well, then, 5 00:00:09,140 --> 00:00:12,240 look at how we can executes SIM commands 6 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,350 now when connecting two remote computers 7 00:00:15,350 --> 00:00:17,690 to run the SIM commands. There's obviously 8 00:00:17,690 --> 00:00:18,890 as you've talked about two different 9 00:00:18,890 --> 00:00:22,210 types, one is a temporary session and then 10 00:00:22,210 --> 00:00:24,930 one would be a more permanent session that 11 00:00:24,930 --> 00:00:27,840 we would actually have to close ourself. 12 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,200 So the first thing I want to do is just 13 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:31,770 create a new variable that we've used 14 00:00:31,770 --> 00:00:34,470 before on. We'll call this local host, 15 00:00:34,470 --> 00:00:36,680 which is just the machine that I'm on. And 16 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,310 then what I'm going to do is do sim 17 00:00:38,310 --> 00:00:40,020 instantiate. Well, actually, what going to 18 00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:41,760 do first is I'm going to say, get sim 19 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,990 session on, then you'll see I have some 20 00:00:43,990 --> 00:00:46,750 sessions here. So what I'm gonna do is a 21 00:00:46,750 --> 00:00:51,010 SIM session sim session, and then I'm 22 00:00:51,010 --> 00:00:53,260 going to say one No, notice what happens. 23 00:00:53,260 --> 00:00:57,470 It doesn't let me delete a SIM session by 24 00:00:57,470 --> 00:01:01,450 using the number. If I do sim or we can 25 00:01:01,450 --> 00:01:03,850 say one, you could see it errors every 26 00:01:03,850 --> 00:01:06,770 single time. So in order for us to clear 27 00:01:06,770 --> 00:01:10,460 the sessions. So if I do get same session, 28 00:01:10,460 --> 00:01:13,340 here is a list. Um, all I need to know 29 00:01:13,340 --> 00:01:16,550 what that same session is so that I could 30 00:01:16,550 --> 00:01:21,600 get rid of it. So if I do, I'm gonna call 31 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:28,020 it session equals get sim session. And 32 00:01:28,020 --> 00:01:30,670 then, of course, you've got IDE and I can. 33 00:01:30,670 --> 00:01:37,340 Say one, then I can say remove sim session 34 00:01:37,340 --> 00:01:40,500 and apps, not server name. I want it to be 35 00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:45,270 sim Session and I can say session. Okay, 36 00:01:45,270 --> 00:01:47,750 so now if I just look back notice I have 37 00:01:47,750 --> 00:01:50,240 to So I can repeat the same process and, 38 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,590 you know, go through and get the session 39 00:01:52,590 --> 00:01:55,030 I can Then remove the session I can then 40 00:01:55,030 --> 00:01:57,160 go back and get three. And then I could 41 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,050 move this session, and then this time I'm 42 00:02:00,050 --> 00:02:01,220 gonna get against extension and have 43 00:02:01,220 --> 00:02:04,230 nothing. Okay, so we clear. Okay, So let 44 00:02:04,230 --> 00:02:06,640 me go back and create my variable again. 45 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,260 Local host. And now what I want to do is 46 00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:13,450 use the get sim instance command, so I 47 00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:17,220 don't want to create a specific session. I 48 00:02:17,220 --> 00:02:19,280 just want to create an instance. So I'm 49 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,990 going to say computer name and we'll use 50 00:02:20,990 --> 00:02:22,870 my computer if use this command multiple 51 00:02:22,870 --> 00:02:26,380 times And this time my name space. I'm 52 00:02:26,380 --> 00:02:28,410 gonna do a bit of a longer name space. So 53 00:02:28,410 --> 00:02:34,640 Sim, Version two, Terminal services. And 54 00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:38,010 then I'll do class name and we'll do win 55 00:02:38,010 --> 00:02:45,190 32 terminal services setting. Okay, So 56 00:02:45,190 --> 00:02:47,180 going to press center. That gives me all 57 00:02:47,180 --> 00:02:49,370 the information back. Now, what did that 58 00:02:49,370 --> 00:02:54,600 just do? Well, let me do get same session. 59 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,790 There's no session, is there? Nothing 60 00:02:56,790 --> 00:02:59,200 exists because the gets him session 61 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,330 literally just created a temporary session 62 00:03:01,330 --> 00:03:03,680 for the purpose of returning the data on, 63 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,480 then deleted that session. It doesn't keep 64 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,730 that session around now. That doesn't 65 00:03:08,730 --> 00:03:10,350 really help me if I want to make 66 00:03:10,350 --> 00:03:13,350 adjustments to values. So if I connect to 67 00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:15,440 the session or at least use gets, um 68 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,900 instance, it's not going to make any 69 00:03:16,900 --> 00:03:19,120 adjustments because I have no session to 70 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,300 utilize. So what we can do is I'm going to 71 00:03:22,300 --> 00:03:24,880 create another variable here. We'll call 72 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,070 it session name and I'll call it training 73 00:03:29,070 --> 00:03:31,460 session. So I have my computer name 74 00:03:31,460 --> 00:03:34,200 already, and I have my session name. Now 75 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,510 I'm going to say session equals new sim 76 00:03:39,510 --> 00:03:44,490 session. The name for that will be my 77 00:03:44,490 --> 00:03:48,550 session name and then my computer will be 78 00:03:48,550 --> 00:03:51,560 the computer. Now, what does that look 79 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:59,580 like? If I do get same session, you'll see 80 00:03:59,580 --> 00:04:01,600 it. The session there exists. You notice 81 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,570 the protocol is not decommitted to be s 82 00:04:03,570 --> 00:04:06,130 man. So we have remote connection. So if I 83 00:04:06,130 --> 00:04:08,770 clear that and then just type session, 84 00:04:08,770 --> 00:04:10,840 you'll see it brings back that one too. So 85 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,310 I now have a persisted session or one that 86 00:04:14,310 --> 00:04:19,060 I can execute. That means if I wanted to 87 00:04:19,060 --> 00:04:26,390 say, get same instantiate class, well, 88 00:04:26,390 --> 00:04:30,540 you'll see that we've got okay, let me do 89 00:04:30,540 --> 00:04:35,880 class name win 32 process and then you'll 90 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,560 see you saw that one that was there. I can 91 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,890 then say session and it will go ahead and 92 00:04:40,890 --> 00:04:42,360 bring with that. Let's just go back and 93 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,930 look at this. So I told it to retrieve all 94 00:04:44,930 --> 00:04:46,930 of the processes using that specific class 95 00:04:46,930 --> 00:04:49,030 name. Get me the instances off it. And I 96 00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:52,150 passed the existing session. So this means 97 00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:53,970 that if we're trying to write something, 98 00:04:53,970 --> 00:04:55,530 for example, that's going to execute 99 00:04:55,530 --> 00:04:58,420 against multiple machines, then we can 100 00:04:58,420 --> 00:05:01,050 create sessions on those machines and then 101 00:05:01,050 --> 00:05:04,850 call back into them as we needed then, of 102 00:05:04,850 --> 00:05:07,050 course, one of the things that we can do 103 00:05:07,050 --> 00:05:09,860 so I'm gonna say get Sim session. This 104 00:05:09,860 --> 00:05:11,920 will give you my i D number and then 105 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,260 we can obviously remove the same session. 106 00:05:16,260 --> 00:05:19,450 Now, I already have this one listed here, 107 00:05:19,450 --> 00:05:25,340 So I can say session boom. And if I now do 108 00:05:25,340 --> 00:05:27,720 session, there's nothing there. So those 109 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,530 sessions will hang around until you've 110 00:05:30,530 --> 00:05:33,190 kind of completed. What? The task that 111 00:05:33,190 --> 00:05:36,670 you're trying to kind of run. Now what we 112 00:05:36,670 --> 00:05:39,060 can do is we can actually modify the 113 00:05:39,060 --> 00:05:40,840 session itself. So I'm going to clear that 114 00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:43,960 down on we're going to change the actual 115 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:48,510 session itself. So, firstly, if I do new 116 00:05:48,510 --> 00:05:56,740 SIM session option and just say a protocol 117 00:05:56,740 --> 00:05:59,250 I can do decomp and enter that now you're 118 00:05:59,250 --> 00:06:01,980 C gives me some values packet, privacy, 119 00:06:01,980 --> 00:06:05,040 packet integrity impersonate etcetera. 120 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,860 Now, what that means is that when I create 121 00:06:07,860 --> 00:06:10,610 that session that's connected to that 122 00:06:10,610 --> 00:06:13,260 session option, it will adopt those that 123 00:06:13,260 --> 00:06:18,940 are there. So if I say new same session, 124 00:06:18,940 --> 00:06:22,900 let me go computer name, dollar computer 125 00:06:22,900 --> 00:06:26,000 and do that. Mm. Wait a minute. This one 126 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,150 connected as ws man, but didn't utilize my 127 00:06:29,150 --> 00:06:32,470 sim session option. So let me clear that 128 00:06:32,470 --> 00:06:35,500 and let me go back to here and loop 129 00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:37,860 through the various values that we have 130 00:06:37,860 --> 00:06:39,780 available to us, and you'll see we have 131 00:06:39,780 --> 00:06:42,630 something called session option. So when 132 00:06:42,630 --> 00:06:45,620 we're defining these, I'm gonna say 133 00:06:45,620 --> 00:06:56,100 options, new SIM session option protocol. 134 00:06:56,100 --> 00:06:58,450 And I'm going to say decomp Now I'm gonna 135 00:06:58,450 --> 00:07:04,620 do my new session session options options 136 00:07:04,620 --> 00:07:07,420 and enter now we can see the difference. 137 00:07:07,420 --> 00:07:10,630 So if I do get SIM session, you can see 138 00:07:10,630 --> 00:07:12,770 there's two. There's the first one that 139 00:07:12,770 --> 00:07:15,640 was the default, which is going to default 140 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,150 to do Bs man, based on the fact that I 141 00:07:19,150 --> 00:07:21,730 passed a computer name but actually with a 142 00:07:21,730 --> 00:07:25,030 SIM session option I can change that and 143 00:07:25,030 --> 00:07:27,000 say, Even though I'm passing a computer 144 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,420 name, I would like you to use a different 145 00:07:29,420 --> 00:07:31,580 protocol to get to it. These key here is 146 00:07:31,580 --> 00:07:33,460 that we have to populate that session 147 00:07:33,460 --> 00:07:36,450 option to make that work, So using the 148 00:07:36,450 --> 00:07:39,460 session options allows me to kind of craft 149 00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:42,030 how I want that session to actually 150 00:07:42,030 --> 00:07:45,110 function. Now. Of course, what we can do 151 00:07:45,110 --> 00:07:48,110 is combine all of this together so we can 152 00:07:48,110 --> 00:07:50,030 go ahead and say, Well, let's retrieve a 153 00:07:50,030 --> 00:07:54,240 value. Let's update a value and then, you 154 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,840 know, let's set a value if needed and this 155 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,640 ties all of those commands together. So, 156 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,710 as an example, we already have the 157 00:08:03,710 --> 00:08:06,700 computer name on Let's say we wanted to 158 00:08:06,700 --> 00:08:09,330 retrieve specific settings. So what I'm 159 00:08:09,330 --> 00:08:13,540 gonna do here is create a new variable. 160 00:08:13,540 --> 00:08:15,040 I'm going to call it terminal service 161 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,640 Settings on. We'll say, gets in session 162 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,410 and then I'm going to say Go and get me 163 00:08:23,410 --> 00:08:26,020 one of those existing sessions. Now, if I 164 00:08:26,020 --> 00:08:30,810 don't have a session, then I can say new 165 00:08:30,810 --> 00:08:34,240 same session and I could give it a name at 166 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,220 this point if I wanted to. So I'm gonna 167 00:08:36,220 --> 00:08:40,620 call this one ts setting, and then I'm 168 00:08:40,620 --> 00:08:42,800 going to do a pipe out of here and say, 169 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,740 Get see him instantiate because remember 170 00:08:45,740 --> 00:08:47,880 that the beauty of PowerShell is that 171 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,250 we can kind of combine these all together. 172 00:08:50,250 --> 00:08:53,910 So I'm gonna say name space on. We'll call 173 00:08:53,910 --> 00:08:59,850 it Route Sim version two slash terminal 174 00:08:59,850 --> 00:09:03,510 services. Then we'll do class name and 175 00:09:03,510 --> 00:09:08,240 we'll say, win 32 terminal services 176 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,890 setting like so. Okay, what does that look 177 00:09:11,890 --> 00:09:14,430 like? Well, let's hope it's got the right 178 00:09:14,430 --> 00:09:16,020 value that we're looking for. And sure 179 00:09:16,020 --> 00:09:17,740 enough, it brings me all the values that 180 00:09:17,740 --> 00:09:21,010 I'm expect him so that command allows me 181 00:09:21,010 --> 00:09:24,130 to initiate a new session with a name. So 182 00:09:24,130 --> 00:09:27,250 if I actually say get sim session, you 183 00:09:27,250 --> 00:09:29,720 should see my tear setting One is listed 184 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,170 here. No, that's great. So let's repeat 185 00:09:33,170 --> 00:09:35,590 that process a little bit and we'll say, 186 00:09:35,590 --> 00:09:40,650 general setting. And I'm going to say new 187 00:09:40,650 --> 00:09:42,520 SIM session because I'm not retrieving 188 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,620 one. I'm gonna call it a name and we'll 189 00:09:46,620 --> 00:09:51,920 say ts general setting like so what I'll 190 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:56,540 now do is pipe that value out and say, Get 191 00:09:56,540 --> 00:10:03,640 Sim. I'm in capital letters there. Get Sim 192 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,320 instantiate. And then, of course, I can 193 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,570 pass name space and I'm going to do the 194 00:10:09,570 --> 00:10:12,580 same as before. So Route Sim version two 195 00:10:12,580 --> 00:10:19,750 slash terminal services and class name Win 196 00:10:19,750 --> 00:10:26,150 32. T s general setting apps. I have a 197 00:10:26,150 --> 00:10:28,340 plus there. That's not what I wanted. 198 00:10:28,340 --> 00:10:32,360 Like, So So now I should have they would 199 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,240 go the general settings in there. Okay, 200 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,550 It's always good to leave. The are is in 201 00:10:36,550 --> 00:10:38,670 there saying kind of see, I obviously 202 00:10:38,670 --> 00:10:40,370 typed the plus sign when it should have 203 00:10:40,370 --> 00:10:43,890 been nothing. So that gives me my details 204 00:10:43,890 --> 00:10:45,930 that I'm looking for now. Of course, when 205 00:10:45,930 --> 00:10:48,030 we combine all of this together. The 206 00:10:48,030 --> 00:10:51,370 beauty that we have is we have a tear 207 00:10:51,370 --> 00:10:54,080 setting, which is all of the values or the 208 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,100 properties that we could change, Which 209 00:10:56,100 --> 00:11:00,310 means that I can then pass that into the 210 00:11:00,310 --> 00:11:04,880 invoke method itself. So I can say sim 211 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,230 method. And then I would need to know what 212 00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:10,870 the method name would be. So in this one, 213 00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:16,000 it's called Allow t s connections. And 214 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,920 then I'm going to pass. Arguments may 215 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,810 remember arguments are passed inside the 216 00:11:20,810 --> 00:11:23,410 at with scroll your brackets. So I'll say 217 00:11:23,410 --> 00:11:29,840 hello. T s connections equals one. Modify 218 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:36,310 firewall. Exceptions equals one. So let's 219 00:11:36,310 --> 00:11:38,320 just look at the command for a second. So 220 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,550 I have the terminal service settings that 221 00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:42,840 I retrieved in the past and now being 222 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,050 passed into the invoke method, which is 223 00:11:45,050 --> 00:11:47,550 very much like the previous invoke methods 224 00:11:47,550 --> 00:11:49,210 that we looked at, which is then going to 225 00:11:49,210 --> 00:11:52,320 execute a specific method which is called 226 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,450 Settle Out es connections. And I'm going 227 00:11:54,450 --> 00:11:57,670 to pass arguments to it to then do 228 00:11:57,670 --> 00:12:01,180 something at this point. I can Then pipe 229 00:12:01,180 --> 00:12:04,360 all of that back out. So I can say format 230 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:11,140 table. I'm gonna say property PS, computer 231 00:12:11,140 --> 00:12:17,980 name, return value and I'll auto size that 232 00:12:17,980 --> 00:12:20,590 impress center now. Of course, What you 233 00:12:20,590 --> 00:12:23,020 can see here is I'm obviously using a 234 00:12:23,020 --> 00:12:25,510 parameter that probably isn't the right 235 00:12:25,510 --> 00:12:27,760 name. I think I've got a s on the end, so 236 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,520 let me just get rid of that. And this is 237 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,660 why you should type all this out first. 238 00:12:31,660 --> 00:12:34,990 There we do. Okay, So it went in, it made 239 00:12:34,990 --> 00:12:37,220 adjustment and returned a value of zero, 240 00:12:37,220 --> 00:12:38,860 which is perfectly fine. I already have 241 00:12:38,860 --> 00:12:41,090 this configuration in. And I could repeat 242 00:12:41,090 --> 00:12:44,120 that process again. That would say Go and 243 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,270 get me the general settings as well. Now, 244 00:12:46,270 --> 00:12:49,580 of course, what we're left with after 245 00:12:49,580 --> 00:12:52,560 running all of this together is a bunch of 246 00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:54,960 sessions. Now, if we dict created the one 247 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,620 session, we could have literally used 248 00:12:57,620 --> 00:13:00,840 session .NET name and it would have 249 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,760 rendered the training session one on. I 250 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,410 could have reused that session over and 251 00:13:05,410 --> 00:13:07,920 over and over again because I didn't do 252 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,540 that. I'm no left with multiple sessions. 253 00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:13,820 So to remove those sessions. So if I say 254 00:13:13,820 --> 00:13:18,270 remove sim session if I loop, I've got 255 00:13:18,270 --> 00:13:21,740 same session Computer name I can say local 256 00:13:21,740 --> 00:13:26,190 host gets him session and they've all 257 00:13:26,190 --> 00:13:28,150 gone. So that was one that I hadn't showed 258 00:13:28,150 --> 00:13:30,340 GUI are is the ability to remove all 259 00:13:30,340 --> 00:13:33,850 sessions by computer name in one sweep. So 260 00:13:33,850 --> 00:13:36,200 that kind of shows you how to modify 261 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,660 existing sessions, how to connect to the 262 00:13:39,660 --> 00:13:41,760 to the machines, using different types of 263 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:47,000 sessions to create remote sessions and then, of course, to execute commands.
