WinRM Settings

Config namespace: config.winrm

The settings within config.winrm relate to configuring how Vagrant will access your Windows guest over WinRM. As with most Vagrant settings, the defaults are typically fine, but you can fine tune whatever you'd like.

These settings are only used if you've set your communicator type to :winrm.

Available Settings

config.winrm.username - This sets the username that Vagrant will use to login to the WinRM web service by default. Providers are free to override this if they detect a more appropriate user. By default this is "vagrant," since that is what most public boxes are made as.


config.winrm.password - This sets a password that Vagrant will use to authenticate the WinRM user. By default this is "vagrant," since that is what most public boxes are made as.


config.winrm.host - The hostname or IP to connect to the WinRM service. By default this is empty, because the provider usually figures this out for you.


config.winrm.port - The WinRM port to connect to, by default 5985.


config.winrm.guest_port - The port on the guest that WinRM is running on. This is used by some providers to detect forwarded ports for WinRM. For example, if this is set to 5985 (the default), and Vagrant detects a forwarded port to port 5985 on the guest from port 4567 on the host, Vagrant will attempt to use port 4567 to talk to the guest if there is no other option.
