MOC 20412 Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services

This version of this course is built on the final release version of Windows Server 2012.

Learn how to provision and configure advanced services using Windows Server 2012 with this five-day course. This course is part three, in a series of three courses that provides the skills and knowledge necessary to implement a core Windows Server 2012 infrastructure in an existing enterprise environment. The three courses will collectively cover implementing, managing, maintaining and provisioning services and infrastructure in a Windows Server 2012 environment. Although there is some cross-over of skills and tasks across these three courses, this course primarily covers advanced configuration of services necessary to deploy, manage and maintain a Windows Server 2012 infrastructure, such as advanced networking services, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), identity management, rights management, Federated services, network load balancing, failover clustering, business continuity and disaster recovery.

This course is intended for IT professionals with hands-on experience implementing, managing, and maintaining a Windows Server 2012 infrastructure in an existing enterprise environment, who wish to acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to carry out advanced management and provisioning of services within the Windows Server 2012 environment. Students are typically be experienced system administrators and should have approximately two years of hands-on experience working in a Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2012 environment.

A secondary audience for this course are candidates who plan to take Exam 70-412: Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services, or who are aspiring to acquire the Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate (MCSA) credential either in its own right or so that they can proceed to the Microsoft Certified Solutions Expert (MCSE) credentials, for which this is a prerequisite

After completing this course, students will be able to:

• Implement advanced network services.
• Implement advanced file services.
• Implement Dynamic Access Control.
• Implement network load balancing (NLB).
• Implement failover clustering.
• Implement failover clustering with Hyper-V.
• Implement disaster recovery.
• Implement distributed Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) deployments.
• Implement AD DS sites and replication.
• Implement Active Directory Certification Services (AD CS).
• Implement Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS).
• Implement Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS).

Before attending this course, students must have:

• Hands-on experience working in a Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2012 enterprise environment.
• Real-world experience implementing, managing, and configuring AD DS and networking infrastructure in an enterprise environment.
• Knowledge equivalent to 20410A ( Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012 ) , and 20411A ( Administering Windows Server 2012 ) .
