Title: Configuring IPAM and Configuring Domains, Forests and Trusts
Course: CTS 2392 Configuring Advanced Windows 2012 Services > Section: Module 5

Introduction

IP Address Management (IPAM) is a new feature of Windows Server 2012 which provides the ability to plan, manage and track the use of IP addresses and DNS requests within an Active Directory Forest from a single administrative point. Domains are logical divisions of users and computers with an Active Directory Forest that are typically created to map to departments within a company that share a common functionality such as HR or sales. Trusts are created to allow users in one domain to authenticate and access resources in another domain seamlessly without the need to login in to that domain. In this module you will deploy IPAM within a forest and configure a Trust between two domains within a forest.

Objectives

Upon completion of this module, the student will be able to:

- Implement IPAM on a Member Server
