You need to have Agents communication with Azure Pipelines. When you use the agent to deploy artifacts to a set of servers, it must have "line of sight" connectivity to those servers. The Microsoft-hosted agent pools, by default, have connectivity to Azure websites and servers running in Azure.

If your on-premises environments do not have connectivity to a Microsoft-hosted agent pool (which is typically the case due to intermediate firewalls), you'll need to manually configure a self-hosted agent on on-premises computer(s). The agents must have connectivity to the target on-premises environments, and access to the Internet to connect to Azure Pipelines or Team Foundation Server, as shown in the following schematic.

Once you have the agent configured , you can leverage the tasks to run PowerShell on target machines with the Release pipeline task gallery.

Hope this helps.
