  1. A Windows Server administrator needs to provide encrypted, certificate-based VPN access without requiring a pre-shared key. Which VPN protocol should be configured?

    Answer: SSTP (Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol)

    SSTP tunnels PPP traffic over HTTPS using SSL/TLS certificates, eliminating the need for pre-shared keys and working through most firewalls on port 443.

  2. When configuring Active Directory Sites and Services for a multi-site organization, what object defines the network subnets associated with each AD site?

    Answer: Subnet object

    Subnet objects in AD Sites and Services map IP address ranges to specific sites, allowing the KCC and clients to determine their site membership for optimal DC selection.

  3. A Windows Server 2019 administrator needs to configure storage tiering to automatically move hot data to SSDs and cold data to HDDs. Which feature enables this?

    Answer: Storage Spaces with Storage Tiering

    Storage Spaces with Storage Tiering automatically classifies data as hot or cold and moves it between SSD and HDD tiers based on access frequency.

  4. An administrator configures Network Policy Server (NPS) as a RADIUS proxy. Incoming RADIUS requests from wireless APs are forwarded to which NPS element for policy evaluation?

    Answer: Remote RADIUS Server Group

    When NPS acts as a RADIUS proxy, Connection Request Policies forward requests to Remote RADIUS Server Groups, which contain the actual RADIUS servers that authenticate requests.

  5. During a server migration, an administrator needs to transfer all FSMO roles from a retiring domain controller. Which PowerShell cmdlet moves all five FSMO roles at once?

    Answer: Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole

    Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole with the -OperationMasterRole parameter accepting all five roles (0-4 or named) transfers FSMO roles via PowerShell.

  6. A Windows Server administrator needs to prevent specific users from logging on locally to a server while still allowing remote desktop access. Which Group Policy setting achieves this?

    Answer: Deny log on locally (user rights assignment)

    The 'Deny log on locally' user rights assignment blocks interactive console logons for specified users or groups while leaving RDP access unaffected.

  7. In a Windows Server environment, which command-line tool tests DNS name resolution and provides detailed query information including the authoritative DNS server that responded?

    Answer: nslookup

    nslookup queries DNS servers directly and displays the responding server's name and address along with the resolved records, making it ideal for DNS troubleshooting.
