Windows Server 2012 Lab - Overview of Part 1 to Part 6

I would like to quickly touch base some information so far that we have covered in the previous six parts.

Our lab topology or network consists of a virtual router (pfSense), a Windows Server 2012 server, and a client.
Please note that we will install one or more servers, one or more clients in our future tutorials.

So we have covered:

• how to install pfSense
• how to configure a private or internal network for lab
• how to install Windows Sever 2012
• how to assign a static IP for server and ping pfsense for confirming the connectivity
• how to install Active Directory and creating a new root domain for our lab
• how to setup pfSense with web URL

A small note of info on our VMs:
pfSense: 10.1.1.1
DC-1: 10.1.1.10
Client: ??

If you have noticed we do not have a client machine yet to start our lab.

For that I will cover WDS (Windows Deployment Services). I will try to cover as much as I can in the next tutorials on WDS.

After that we will deploy a windows image to our client in our VirtualBox Server 2012 lab.

Please follow my blog if you find my tutorials helpful or useful in a way.
