Exam Objectives
The following exam objectives are covered in this lab:
- Understand installation types - Perform network installations
Lab Duration
It will take approximately 45 minutes to complete this lab.
Exercise 1 - Preparing System Requirements for Windows Deployment Services
Windows Deployment Services (WDS) is a Windows server feature that simplifies the rollout of Windows desktop operating systems such as Windows 10 and earlier versions on new equipment without requiring IT personnel visit each computer or install directly using CD or DVD media.
Remote installation of Windows operating system occurs when a WDS client boots up using a network interface card that supports Preboot Execute (PXE) specification. The client then connects to WDS server which runs the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) service and hosts the Windows 10 boot files and installs images. When the network connection between WDS client and server is successfully established, the operating system setup continues virtually hands-free with a few system prompts to complete the installation process
In this exercise, you will prepare the system requirements for a successful configuration of Windows Deployment Services.
Exercise 2 - Perform Remote Installation of Windows
After setting up the system requirements for successfully implementing remote OS installation using Windows Deployment Services, you will verify the WDS client’s connection to the WDS server and install a new operating system.
In this exercise, you will perform a remote installation of Windows 10 to a guest virtual machine using WDS.
