Opening Port Communication through the Windows Firewall or a Third-party Firewall
Procedure
On the Hyper-V server, ensure that the firewall allows communication through port 135 and test the Hyper-V connection again.
For details about opening ports, refer to your firewall documentation.
If the connection to the Hyper-V server is unsuccessful, configure WMI to use a fixed port.

Open ports 135 and the newly created fixed port (24158) for communication through the firewall.
Test the Hyper-V connection again.
