NSSA221 Systems Administration I Lab 02 Report Name: ________________________________________ Grade ____/100 Use this template to answer questions related to Lab 2. Submit this template to the Lab Report 02 (LR02) drop box by the due date. Late submissions are subject to a 20% penalty. You must use this template and submit the document in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF any other format will result in a zero grade for the report. When submitting your document, please save it in the following format, use LR02, followed by an underscore, followed by the first initial of your first name in uppercase, and your entire last name with the first letter in uppercase. Example: LR02_GArcoraci.doc. Question 1 (20 points) Describe the general purpose of a domain controller. How does Active Directory establish administrative boundaries using object containers? What Active Directory objects are used to create security boundaries? What is the purpose of Relative and Security IDs? Question 2 (20 points) Explain the importance of integrating DNS with Active Directory. Most notably, how the clients and servers use it. What is the significance of the SRV resource record in DNS, and how does it relate to the services in a domain? Question 3 (20 points) Active Directory uses groups to elevate user privileges; three of the more critical groups are Enterprise Admins, Schema Admins, and Domain Admins. Describe the primary function of each of these groups and why you need to be selective about adding users to them. Why might you want to add a user to the "Domain Admins" group? Question 4 (20 points) In your own words, how does understanding Active Directory and Group Policy benefit a Systems Administrator? Question 5 (20 points) Spring 2235
What does it mean to “link,” a group policy object? What is the order of precedence regarding GPOs, and explain how GPOs are inherited and enforced relative to the order of precedence? What process would you use to unlink a policy? To maintain fairness, please make sure to include all required screenshots in the report. Neglecting to include a screenshot will result in a 5% deduction from the report grade. If three or more screenshots are missing, the report will receive a grade of zero. This policy applies not only to this lab but also to any future labs. It is crucial that the screenshots accurately present the required information and are easily legible, clear, and readable. Modifying the information in the screenshots is considered academic dishonesty, resulting in a grade of zero for the report and potentially impacting the overall course grade. All screenshots must be labeled in the report, using the following titles. Figure 1 – Active Directory Validation Figure 2 – Domain Controller and DHCP Scope Verification Figure 3 – Windows 10 DHCP Validation Figure 4 – Windows 10 Domain Verification Figure 5 – Linux Domain Verification Figure 6 – Get-ADDomain PowerShell Session Output Figure 7 – First Organizational Unit Figure 8 – Second Organizational Unit Figure 9 – PowerShell History Figure 10 – GPO Reports* *If you need multiple screenshots for the GPO reports just append a letter, for example, Figure 10a, Figure 10b.
