To remotely manage SharePoint 2010/2013 using PowerShell, perform the following steps: .

On the client machine (the management server):

Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role Client -DelegateComputer * -Force
Set-ItemProperty HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Credssp\PolicyDefaults\AllowFreshCredentials -Name WSMan -Value WSMAN/*
Set-ItemProperty HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Credssp\PolicyDefaults\AllowFreshCredentialsDomain -Name WSMan -Value WSMAN/*

On the SharePoint server:

Enable-PSRemoting -Force Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role Server -Force
Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role Server -Force

Afterwards it is possible to connect to the server using PowerShell from your management server, using the following cmdlet:

Enter-PSSession SPServer -Authentication CredSSP -Credential DOMAIN\username

Add the SharePoint PowerShell SnapIn

Add-PSSnapIn Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell

To see if it works, run a simple SharePoint cmdlet:

Get-SPSite
