Could not connect to the specified computer

When Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager reports the following error:

Could not connect to the specified computer

Details: the underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.

It is likely the webserver you are trying to connect to uses a newer version of the TLS protocol. Probably TLS 1.2 or even TLS 1.3. Since IIS Manager uses the .NET Framework in the background, you need to make sure you connect with the highest possible TLS version. Add the following registry values:

# 
# Transport Layer Security (TLS) best practices with the .NET Framework - Set the SchUseStrongCrypto and SystemDefaultTlsVersions registry keys
# 
New-ItemProperty "hklm:SOFTWAREMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319" -Name SchUseStrongCrypto -Value 1 -PropertyType DWord
New-ItemProperty "hklm:SOFTWAREMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319" -Name SystemDefaultTlsVersions -Value 1 -PropertyType DWord
New-ItemProperty "hklm:SOFTWAREWOW6432NodeMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319" -Name SchUseStrongCrypto -Value 1 -PropertyType DWord

How to install IIS Web Management Service (WMSVC) using PowerShell in Windows Server Core

You may also need to install IIS Web Management Service (WMSVC) on Server Core, or you cannot connect with IIS Manager, this allows you to remotely manager your IIS webservers. Here I show you how to install WMSVC using PowerShell.

By default, there is no IIS Manager available on Windows Server Core. So you’ll need to install and configure IIS Web Management Service (WMSVC), which’ll allow you to manage your IIS server and web apps remotely. Here are the steps to install IIS Web Management Service (WMSVC) in Windows Server Core using PowerShell.

Install IIS Web Management Service for Remote IIS Administration and Management

1. Open PowerShell as administrator
2. Install the Remote Management Service
   1. Install-WindowsFeature Web-Mgmt-Service
3. Update the registry to enable remote management
   1. Set-ItemProperty HKLM:SOFTWAREMicrosoftWebManagementServer -Name EnableRemoteManagement -Value 1 -PropertyType DWORD -Force
   2. for additional security, set: Set-ItemProperty HKLM:SOFTWAREMicrosoftWebManagementServer -Name RequiresWindowsCredentials -Value 1 -PropertyType DWORD -Force
4. Set the Web Management Service (WMSVC) to start automatically:
   1. sc.exe config WMSVC start=auto
   2. net start WMSVC

Configure your Windows firewall, add a rule

You need to add a rule so you are allowed to connect. The WMSVC listens on port 8172 TCP, let’s open that one up. By service name:

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IIS Remote Management" dir=in action=allow service=WMSVC
Code language: PowerShell (powershell)

or by port number:

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IIS Remote Management" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=8172
Code language: PowerShell (powershell)
