Read the first 7 Casper System Setup & Configuration flashcards as text

  1. What is the recommended ambient temperature range for a Casper system installation environment?

    Answer: 50°F–95°F (10°C–35°C)

    Casper systems require an ambient operating temperature of 50°F–95°F (10°C–35°C) to prevent thermal damage.

  2. During initial Casper server configuration, which network protocol must be enabled for client imaging to function over PXE?

    Answer: TFTP

    TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) is required for PXE boot environments to deliver boot files to Casper clients.

  3. When configuring Casper's management framework, what is the purpose of the 'JSS URL' setting?

    Answer: It points clients to the JAMF Software Server for policy retrieval

    The JSS URL directs enrolled Casper clients to the JAMF Software Server to retrieve policies, inventory, and configuration profiles.

  4. Which file system format is required on a Casper NetBoot server volume for macOS imaging compatibility?

    Answer: HFS+

    HFS+ (Mac OS Extended) is required for NetBoot volumes because legacy macOS imaging workflows depend on this format.

  5. A technician is setting up Casper Remote on a new admin workstation. Which TCP port must be open on the target client Mac?

    Answer: 5900

    Casper Remote uses Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) over TCP port 5900 (VNC) to connect to client machines.

  6. What is the default check-in frequency for Casper-enrolled clients communicating with the JSS?

    Answer: Every 15 minutes

    By default, Casper clients check in with the JSS every 15 minutes to pick up pending policies and inventory updates.

  7. When deploying a Casper distribution point, which authentication method is recommended for securing SMB shares used for package distribution?

    Answer: Dedicated service account with read-only access

    A dedicated read-only service account limits exposure while allowing Casper clients to authenticate and download packages securely.
