Here are the key steps: 1. Installation of AD DS: - I install AD DS on the Windows Server 2025 VM. - This involves configuring the server as a Domain Controller (DC). 2. Verifying DNS: - After promoting the server to a DC, I verify the corresponding Domain Name System (DNS) functionality. - DNS is crucial for name resolution within the domain. 3. Deploying DHCP: - I deploy the DHCP server role on the same Windows Server 2025 VM. - DHCP provides dynamic IPv4 addressing to network clients. 4. Adding a Windows 11 Professional Host: - I add a Windows 11 Professional host to the Active Directory Domain. - This allows the Windows 11 PC to participate in the domain. 5. Creating Organizational Units (OUs) and Users: - I create a set of nested Organizational Units (OUs) within AD. - Additionally, I create a domain admin user and a regular user account. - Finally, I verify their functionality using the Windows 11 PC.
