Lesson DescriptionsLesson 1: Install and Configure Domain ControllersThis lesson covers the process of installing Active Directory Directory Services (AD DS).
Lesson 2: Configure AD in Complex EnvironmentsThis lesson introduces a more complex AD environment, which might include multiple domains for forests and how they communicate using different types of trust relationships. We discuss the functional levels and how to upgrade them as well as how to demote a DC if it is no longer needed.
Lesson 3: Create and Manage Users and ComputersWe talk about how to work with user and computer accounts in Active Directory Users and Computers (AD UC), along with working with users and computers using PowerShell, command line utilities, and the AD Administrative Center.
Lesson 4: Create and Manage AD Groups and OUsWe explore the default AD DS groups, identities, and how group nesting works in AD DS.
Lesson 5: Service Authentication and Account PoliciesThis covers managed services accounts (MSAs) and group MSAs or gMSAs that can be used to run apps and services rather than using standard user accounts or system accounts. We explore these account types along with the use of Service Principal Names (SPNs), virtual accounts, and how to configure the Kerberos Constrained Delegation (KCD).
Lesson 6: Maintaining Active DirectoryMaintaining AD involves protecting your Active Directory data. This can be done by enabling the AD Recycle Bin or performing Windows backups. When recovering AD data, you need to perform the appropriate recovery, so we explore when to use Authoritative vs. nonauthoritative restores.
Lesson 7: Understanding and Working with GPOsThis lesson introduces group policies along with GPO categories, types, nodes, and tools that are used to configure GPOs. You learn how to configure a GPO and apply the GPO to an AD object by linking it to a container, both which can be done by using both the GUI and PowerShell.
Lesson 8: Configure Group Policy ProcessingYou learn how group policies are applied by default and how you can control them with the use of blocking inheritance and enforcing GPOs so that they can’t be blocked.
Lesson 9: Configure Group Policy SettingsThis covers the settings that can be configured by GPOs. We explore how to manage software deployments, scripts including logon/logoff, as well as startup/shutdown scripts and folder redirection along with the permissions associated with redirection.
Lesson 10: Configure Group Policy PreferencesYou learn about group policy preferences and how they can be used to configure common desktop options like printers, power options, custom registry, Control Panel options, network drive mappings, file and folder settings, and even shortcuts.
Lesson 11: Install and Configure AD Certificate ServicesYou learn about PKI and how to perform a two-step process to install and configure AD CS in Windows Server 2016. AD CS includes several components, so we discuss these components and their role with AD CS and look at standard versus enterprise certificate authorities.
Lesson 12: Manage CertificatesWe look at managing certificates by using templates and at certificate enrollment, autoenrollment, and renewal as well as how to work with the CRL.
Lesson 13: Install and Configure AD Federation ServicesWe look at managing certificates by using templates and certificate enrollment, autoenrollment, and renewal, as well as how to work with the CRL.
Lesson 14: Implement Web Application Proxy (WAP)We explore the integration of WAP and how to perform a two-step process to install and configure WAP to integrate it with AD FS, improving your authentication strategy when publishing apps and services externally.
Lesson 15: Install and Configure AD RMSThis lesson introduces and explores Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS), which enables you to protect data on-prem and in transit.
