Remote IIS administation options missing in Windows 8

Question

I would like to remotely administer IIS on a couple of test servers from my Windows 8 Professional machine. However, the options to do so seem to be missing from IIS Manager.

enter image description here

My expectation is that there should be a few extra buttons in the area below Connections.

Is there an extra Windows component that I need to install?

Found the issue. I needed to install IIS Manager for Remote Administration.

The left-most button contains the options I was looking for.

Is this not included in the RSAT tools? – MDMoore313 Jul 30 '13 at 12:49
