Microsoft MCSE - Server Infrastructure 2012 (70-413, 70-414) with Live Labs

Students can expect a full working knowledge of the Windows Server 2012 platform, then the advanced topics will enable students to design and build a robust, secure server infrastructure. The course includes 12 months unlimited access to Live Labs. This dedicated learning resource allows students to recreate course scenarios and practice techniques to extend both their technical knowledge and experience. The course has five modules in this all-inclusive training package. Once completed, students will fully understand the concepts behind Microsoft Windows Server 2012: Microsoft 70-410: Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012, students will learn: • How to install and configure Server 2012 including basic hardware and permissions configuration. • How to configure key OS services including file sharing, print serving and networking roles. • Create Active Directory users and computers and the Group Policy Objects (GPOs) required to manage a corporate network. • Use built-in security tools to restrict access to data, applications and other key network resources. Microsoft 70-411: Administering Windows Server 2012: • Simplifying server and patch deployment using images. • Improving data security and access using Distributed File Systems (DFS), File Server Resource Manager (FRSM), file and disk encryption. • Monitoring and auditing servers to identify and resolve potential problems. • Networking concepts including VPNs, Network Policy Server (NPS) and policies, Network Access Protection (NAP). • Managing the wider network efficiently with Domain Controllers, service authentication, Active Directory, account policies and GPOs.
