Read the first 7 MSCE Server Infrastructure & Network Management flashcards as text

  1. An administrator configures a Software Defined Networking (SDN) environment on Windows Server 2019. Which component acts as the central management plane for SDN policies?

    Answer: Network Controller

    Network Controller is the centralized SDN management plane that programs and manages virtual and physical network infrastructure according to defined policies.

  2. A Windows Server administrator needs to limit the bandwidth consumed by a specific virtual machine. Which Hyper-V feature accomplishes this?

    Answer: Quality of Service (QoS) policies on the virtual switch

    Hyper-V virtual switch QoS policies allow administrators to set minimum and maximum bandwidth limits for individual virtual network adapters.

  3. In a Windows Server environment, what is the purpose of the 'Deployment Image Servicing and Management' (DISM) tool?

    Answer: Mount, modify, and service Windows images offline

    DISM is used to mount and service Windows images (.wim, .vhd) offline, allowing administrators to add/remove features, drivers, and updates before deployment.

  4. A company wants to implement network isolation between VMs on the same Hyper-V host without using VLANs. Which Windows Server 2019 SDN feature enables this?

    Answer: Virtual Network (using VXLAN/NVGRE)

    SDN virtual networks using VXLAN or NVGRE encapsulation allow complete network isolation between VM groups without requiring VLAN configuration on physical switches.

  5. An enterprise wants to centrally log all Windows Server security events for compliance. Which Windows feature forwards events from multiple servers to a central collector?

    Answer: Windows Event Forwarding (WEF)

    Windows Event Forwarding (WEF) uses WS-Management to forward event log entries from source computers to a central Windows Event Collector subscription.

  6. A storage administrator needs to create a resilient, software-defined storage pool from a set of JBODs attached to a Windows Server. Which feature should be used?

    Answer: Storage Spaces

    Storage Spaces allows administrators to group physical disks into a storage pool and create virtual disks with resiliency options like mirroring or parity from commodity hardware.

  7. When deploying a Remote Desktop Services (RDS) environment, which role service provides the single point of entry for all external RDS connections?

    Answer: RD Gateway

    RD Gateway acts as a secure entry point for external RDS connections, tunneling RDP traffic over HTTPS (port 443) to protect internal resources.
