Quick set up of a Windows LAB in LAPTOP, Learn experimenting yourself.
Course Description
Welcome, all to the course on setting up a personnel Windows lab where you can try out your different requirements on the go. Before trying out anything in the actual work environment, you can try it out in your own LAB which increases the confidence in you as well as mitigate the issues that can happen in your work set up in case if you implement it directly there.
We will see how to create 3 virtual machines in this course named VM1,VM2 and CENTRALServer.
If you need to have an effective lab set up, you should require a domain and join your servers to that domain. In our case, the CENTRAL Server acts as the domain server which will handle the other two servers VM1 and VM2 in terms of domain set up.
So we are going to do the below steps in the course.
- Install VMWare Player , a free software with which the servers are getting created
- Build 3 servers VM1 VM2 and central server.
- Install VMWare tools to enhance the functionality of the servers
- Promote CENRAL Server to a domain controller server with AD and DNS set up.
- Join the VM1 and VM2 to the domain
- Additionally, giving you an idea on how to install VM1 server using VMWare Workstation Pro (a licensed enhanced version of VMWare player)
So let us start building our LAB set up and start your experiments there.
