Windows Server 2008, Technology Specialist: Exam-Pack 70-648 Series:
Video 1 - "Series Overview" - This nugget sets the stage for the rest
of the series. In it we first make sure that you are well-placed.
Although we target this series primarily for current MCSAs in Windows
Server 2003, anybody with interest in learning more about Windows
Server 2008 administration is bound to learn lots of new stuff by
participating in this computer-based training. In this nugget we also
spend time dissecting the current-generation Microsoft certifications
(MCTS, MCITP, and so forth), as well as the ‘anatomy and physiology,’
so to speak, of the 70-648 bridge exam. In short, we want to ensure
that you are as prepared as possible in between completing this nugget
series and passing your certification test.
* Setting Expectations
* How this Series Works
* 70-648 Exam Strategies
Video 2 - "Deploying Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services
(Ad Lds)" - In this nugget we consider that portable,
application-specific "flavor" of Active Directory formerly known as
Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM): Active Directory Lightweight
Directory Services (AD LDS). Although AD LDS is, under most
circumstance, of more interest to the application developer than to the
Windows systems engineer, it is nonetheless important for us to
understand (a) the purpose and function of AD LDS; (b) how to plan for
and install AD LDS instances; and (c) use special administrative tools
to manage those newly installed AD LDS instances. In this nugget we
will also learn how to set up and use AD LDS replication. We’ll leave
monitoring and troubleshooting AD replication for Nugget #8: Monitoring
Active Directory.
* Understanding AD LDS
* Creating an AD LDS Instance
* Configuring AD LDS
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS)
Video 3 - "Implementing Active Directory Rights Management Services (Ad
Rms)" - In this nugget we take digital rights management (DRM) to the
next level and learn how we can add seamless document security to
Windows Server 2008 domain environments. Imagine being able to prevent
unauthorized users from printing, saving, or forwarding Microsoft
Office documents. As you may know, these actions are not possible by
using standard NTFS permissions or even EFS encryption. Thanks to AD
RMS, all these protection levels and more are within easy reach. An
especially fascinating nugget!
* Understanding AD RMS
* Deploying an AD RMS Infrastructure
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS)
Video 4 - "Administering the read-only domain controller (RODC)" - In
this nugget we introduce one of the many brand-new features of Windows
Server 2008-the read-only domain controller, or RODC. You can expect to
see lots of questions on your 70-648 exam on this subject, so make sure
you understand everything we discuss in this nugget. In a nutshell, the
RODC is, in a sense, a throwback to the backup domain controller (BDC)
from the old Windows NT 4.0 domain networking days. With RODCs you can
reduce the attack surface of your directory services servers in branch
office environments.
* Configuring a Read-Only Domain Controller (RODC)
* Configuring Unidirectional Replication and Read-Only DNS
* Managing Administrator Role Separation
* Administering Credential Caching and Password Replication
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring the Read-Only Domain Controller (RODC)
Video 5 - "Configuring Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)" -
In this nugget we learn how to share Active Directory Domain Services
(AD DS) credentials between forests over an Internet connection. The
most common use of an AD RMS scenario is a business-to-business (B2B)
extranet in which user accounts in one AD DS forest need to access an
IIS Web application hosted in another AD DS forest. The neat thing
about AD RMS is that we can share Web application resources without
having to manually juggle and recreate user accounts. Lots to learn in
this nugget!
* Understanding AD FS Terminology
* Understanding Federated Trusts
* Deploying AD FS
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)
Video 6 - "Managing Active Directory Backup And Recovery Part 1" - In
this nugget we learn how to use the spruced-up and retooled backup and
restore tools in Windows Server 2008. For your exam success we will
want to pay particular attention in this nugget to the syntax and
functionality of Wbadmin, the command-line interface to the Windows
Server 2008 backup/restore toolset.
* Using Windows Server Backup
* Performing AD Backups and Restores
* Managing Linked Value Replication (LVR)
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Backup and Recovery
* Performing Offline Maintenance
Video 7 - "Managing Active Directory Backup And Recovery Part 2" - In
this nugget we continue our merry journey through Windows Server 2008
backup and restore, this time focusing on restartable AD DS (a new
feature in Windows Server 200

, offline AD operations with the
NTDSUTIL utility, and Group Policy Object (GPO) maintenance.
* Using Restartable AD DS
* Performing Offline AD Defragmentation and Compaction
* Backing Up and Restoring GPOs
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Backup and Recovery

Video 8 - "Monitoring Active Directory" - In this nugget we learn how
to put our fingers on the proverbial pulse of the Active Directory
Directory Services (AD DS) database. First we use the traditional (yet
nicely updated) Task Manager utility. Next we fire up the nifty ReplMon
and RepAdmin tools. Finally, we cover the daunting and powerful Windows
System Resource Manager. You can expect to see quite a bit of coverage
on this topic on all of your Windows Server 2008 certification exams,
so listen up!
* Using Task Manager
Working with ReplMon and RepAdmin
Administering a Server with Windows System Resource Manager (WSRM)
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Monitor Active Directory
Video 9 - "Deploying Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) Part
1" - In this nugget we delve into the wild and wooly world of Public
Key Infrastructure (PKI). There is much to be learned with this
subject, and many questions to be seen on your Windows Server 2008
exams, so be sure to pay attention.
* Understanding PKI
* Installing and Configuring AD CS
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Install Active Directory Certificate Services
* Configure CA Settings
Video 10 - "Deploying Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS)
Part 2" - In this nugget we continue our discussion of Active Directory
Certification Services, this time focusing on post-installation
concerns such as maintaining and monitoring the service.
* Maintaining AD CS
* Monitoring AD CS
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Manage Certificate templates
* Manage enrollments
* Manage certificate revocations
Video 11 - "Configuring Ip Addressing In Windows Server 2008" - In this
nugget we address (pun intended) a subject that tends to scare many IT
certification candidates: IP addressing. Don't worry, though: the
Microsoft exams are nowhere near as difficult on this subject as are
the Cisco exams. The big deal in this nugget is understanding IPv6
support in Windows Server 2008; this is certainly the focus you can
expect to see on your 70-648 test.
* Understanding IPv4 and IPv6
* Configuring IPv4 and IPv6

Video 13 - "Configuring Routing In Windows Server 2008" - In this
nugget we examine how to turn a Windows Server 2008 box into an IP
router. This has been functionality that existed in Windows Server
products since Windows NT 4.0. The big surprise in this nugget, if you
don't mind us letting the cat out of the bag early, is that Microsoft
removed support for the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing
protocol from Windows Server 2008. Other than that, IP routing in
Windows Server 2008, you will find, is largely unchanged from the
functionality in Windows Server 2003.
* Managing Static Routing
* Implementing RIP for IP
* What Happened to OSPF?
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Routing
Video 14 - "Implementing Ipsec In Windows Server 2008" - In this nugget
we examine Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) functionality and how it
is implemented in Windows Server 2008. If you have deployed IPSec
policies in Windows Server 2003, then you will certainly want to study
this nugget very closely, because Microsoft has completely revamped how
IPSec is handled in both Windows Server 2008 as well as in Windows
Vista.
* Understanding IPSec
* Deploying an IPSec Policy
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring IPSec
Video 15 - "MANAGING REMOTE ACCESS IN WINDOWS SERVER 2008" - In this
nugget we consider three always relevant remote access topics: virtual
private networking (VPN) server support in Windows Server 2008;
configuring centralized remote access authentication, authorization,
and accounting with RADIUS; and deploying VPN and dial-up connection
profiles by using the Connection Manager Administration Kit (CMAK).
* Configuring VPN Server and Client Connections

Video 16 - "Deploying Network Access Protection (NAP)" - In this nugget
we cover one of the most eagerly anticipated new features of Windows
Server 2008--Network Access Protection, or NAP. With this technology we
can screen incoming connections to our domain against pre-configured
health policies. For instance, do guest network PCs have current
antivirus definitions? Do they have Windows Firewall enabled? If not,
then we can prevent these non-compliant hosts from accessing the
internal network, or we can remediate these hosts to a special subnet.
NAP is a nifty technology, and by the end of this nugget you will know
precisely how it works.
* Understanding NAP
* Deploying NAP Health Policies
* Administering NAP Enforcement Methods
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Network Access Protection (NAP)
* Configure Network Authentication (/LI>
Video 17 - "Managing Wireless Access In Windows Server 2008" - In this
nugget we review IEEE 802.11 wireless terminology, understand the vast
improvements Microsoft made in supporting wireless networking in
Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista, and we learn how to configure
wireless Group Policy in Windows Server 2008 domains.
* Reviewing Wireless Terminology
* Understanding New Features in Windows Server 2008
* Configuring Wireless Group Policy
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Wireless Access
Video 18 - "Administering Windows Firewall In Windows Server 2008" - In
this nugget we examine the drastically updated Windows Firewall service
and its dependence upon the Network Location Awareness (NLA) service in
Windows Server 2008. This is an often-confused subject among even
experienced Windows Server administrators, so you will want to pay
particular attention to this nugget not only for your exam success, but
also for your edification in the field.
* Understanding Network Location Awareness (NLA)
* Using the Two Windows Firewall Applications
* Managing Windows Firewall with Group Policy
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Configuring Firewall Settings
Video 19 - "Configuring windows server update services (WSUS)" - In
this nugget we learn how to wield the updated Windows Server Update
Services (WSUS) tools in Windows Server 2008. Gone is the clunky IIS
Web application-based user interface. Now we have a slick, fast MMC
console interface with a SQL Server Reporting Services "candy-coated"
back end. You'll really like this tool if you haven't seen the latest
version yet.
* Understanding WSUS in Windows Server 2008
* Configuring a WSUS Server
* Administering Group Policy for WSUS
* Managing Client-Side Settings for WSUS
Relevant Exam Objectives

Video 20 - "Capturing And Analyzing Server Performance Data" - In this
nugget we learn how to use the Reliability and Performance Monitor
Console. If you have prior experience with the Performance Monitor
console in Windows Server 2003 you are ahead of the curve. However, as
Dorothy said in The Wizard of Oz, "I have a feeling we're not in Kansas
anymore." The Reliability and Performance Monitor console is a
different, and vastly more powerful beast than any prior tool of its
kind in any Microsoft server or desktop product.
* Baselining with the Reliability and Performance Monitor Console
* Creating Data Collector Sets
* Using the System Stability Index
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Capturing Performance Data
Video 21 - "Monitoring Local And Remote Event Log Data" - In this
nugget we learn how to administer event log subscriptions. This is a
topic that Microsoft is evidently very proud of, as it occurs and
reoccurs in almost all of the Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista
certification exams. Therefore, you would be well advised to master all
of the material that we cover in this particular nugget.
* Touring the New Event Log Architecture
* Creating Event Subscriptions
* Receiving Notifications on Event Log Data
Relevant Exam Objectives
* Monitoring Event Logs
Video 22 - "Capturing And Analyzing Network Data" - In this nugget we
learn how to perform packet captures with the latest version of Network
Monitor. We also learn how to perform security audits on Windows Server
2008 and Windows Vista computers by using the Microsoft Baseline
Security Analyzer (MBSA) tool.
* Auditing System Security with MBSA
* Capturing Network Traffic with Network Monitor
