KEY LEARNING POINTS

Initially you will be introduced to the fundamentals of working with Microsoft Windows Server:

• Installing and configuring.
• Configuring key operating system services.
• Creating Active Directory user and computer objects, and designing the Group Policy Objects (GPOs) required to manage every element of a Windows-based network.
• Using built-in security tools to restrict unauthorised access to data, applications and other key network resources.

Training then moves on to the skills needed to keep the server operating in peak condition:

• Simplifying server and patch deployment using images.
• Improving data security and access using Distributed File Systems (DFS), File Server Resource Manager (FSRM), and encrypting files and disks.
• Proactively monitoring and auditing servers to identify and resolve potential problems.
• Networking concepts including VPNs, Network Policy Server (NPS) and Network Access Protection (NAP).
• Managing the network infrastructure efficiently with Domain Controllers, service authentication, Active Directory, account policies and GPOs.

The third section of the course is a deep-dive into the advanced services required to maintain an IT environment. You will learn:

• The benefits of using Network Load Balancing (NLB) and failover clustering for maximum resource availability.
• How to install and manage Windows Server in a Virtual Machine (VM) environment.
• Managing file storage and data backups, and designing effective disaster recovery plans.
• Advanced network management and segmentation techniques using DHCP, DNS, IPAM and Active Directory domains, forests trusts and sites.
• Securing enterprise network resources against unauthorised access using Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS), Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), and Active Directory Rights Management Services (ADRMS).

You then learn about the integration of Windows Server into an established network, and building the infrastructure required to support IT operations:

• Performing successful server upgrades and migrations, and building the infrastructure required for rapid deployment of future-ready server resources.
• Building a robust and secure corporate network using Active Directory services and Group Policy Objects to restrict network access, share files and manage storage for authorised users.
• Design and maintain the networking infrastructure required to support enterprise-class IT demands including the use of domain infrastructure, name resolution, IP configuration and address management.

Finally, the course concludes by consolidating your existing level of knowledge and explaining the use of advanced Windows Server functions to further fine tune services. Topics studied include:

• Plan, build, deployment and management of virtual machines using System Center in a specially designed enterprise datacentre.
• Creating additional layers of network security using Information Rights Management (IRM), Identity Federation and Public Key Infrastructure.
• Designing a high-availability infrastructure and accompanying business continuity strategy that will help to reduce downtime in the event of a localised IT disaster.
