TOPIC 1: INTRODUCTION TO CLIENT/SETVER INSTALLATION AND

CONFIGURATION
In this topic it discussed how does client/server networking works. A client/server
network is the medium through which clients access resources and services from a central
computer via either Local Area Network (LAN) or a wide-area network (WAN) such as
internet. It is mentioned that when it is ON the client machines can access the files and
resources without caring whether a certain computer is ON. And when it is OFF, its
resources and sometimes most of the resources on the network are not available.

TOPIC 2: ACTIVE DIRECTORY INSTALLATION

Active directory is the brain of a window server network. It is a data base that keeps
track of huge amount of stuff and gives us a centralized way to manage all our network
machines, users and resources. There are 3 active directory which are users and groups,
service and resources. domain controller controls all the network and it runs active directory
services. Domain is a logical group of computers that share a central directory base. Server
role is a major job that a server can perform. Domain name service provided by a server that
allows you to find other computers in your network.

TOPIC 3: DHCP INSTALLATION

Dynamic host control protocol or DHCP allows a server to automatically assign an IP
address and other information to a client that does not have a statically set IP address. We
need to install this as a server role. In server manager, go to add roles and features and go
through the wizard until you get to the point where you can add the DHCP server. Add the
related features and click next, and continue until it installed. You can’t have more than one
DHCP server unless its acting in failover mode with each other. Otherwise, the windows
DHCP server will automatically shut down, and that’s a good protection scheme in order to
keep from having dueling DHCP servers handing out different subnets. Installation is
complete and now it’s time to configure our DHCP service, Click on tools, DHCP, and go
ahead and expand and create the scope.
TOPIC 4: CREATING OU AND USER ACCOUNT
It is all about the steps on how to create an OU or Organization Unit and a user account,
organization unit is a container that holds AD objects like user accounts, computer accounts,
and groups.

TOPIC 5: JOINING CLIENT PC ON THE DOMAIN

To join a computer to a domain. Navigate to system and then click system. Under
computer name, domain, and work group settings, click change settings. Under the computer
name tab, click change. Under member of, click domain, type the name of the domain that
you wish this computer to join, and click ok.

TOPIC 8: CONFIGURING DNS REVERSE LOOKUP ZONE

Follow these steps to create a reverse lookup zone:

1. Open DNS Manager by clicking Start | Administrative Tools | DNS
2.In the left pane, expand the node representing the server you want to configure, right-
click Reverse Lookup Zones, and click New Zone…
3.Read the welcome page of the New Zone Wizard dialog box and click Next
4. On the Zone Type wizard page, select Secondary zone and click Next. 
5.On the Reverse Lookup Zone Name wizard page, select the appropriate zone type:
▪IPv4 Reverse Lookup Zone. Select this option if you want the zone to track IPv4
address information. This option is the default.
▪IPv6 Reverse Lookup Zone. Select this option if you want the zone to track IPv6
address information. This is a new option in Windows Server 2008.
6. Click Next
7.On the second Reverse Lookup Zone Name wizard page, select and configure the
appropriate option (See Figure 5.20):
▪Network ID. This option helps you to properly name the zone. Enter the network
portion of the IP address range you want the zone to service. A proper zone name will
automatically be filled in under Reverse lookup zone name: for you. This must match
the configuration information used when creating the primary reverse lookup zone.
▪Reverse lookup zone name. If you would prefer to enter the zone name manually, you
can do so using this option. You should follow the recommended DNS naming standards for
reverse lookup file names.

9. On the Master DNS Servers wizard page, enter the name of one or more DNS servers that
this secondary zone will take transfers from. Enter the master server's IP address or FQDN by
clicking <Click here to add an IP Address or DNS Name> Secondary zones can be
transferred from standard primary, AD Integrated, and other secondary zones. For fault
tolerance, more than one master server can be specified. All servers are not used by default. If
the first server on the list is successfully contacted, for example, the rest of the list will be
ignored. Servers can be ordered using the Up and Down buttons, and removed from the list
using the Delete button.
