    Study Notes

    Domain Model and Network Administration

    • In a domain-based network, Network Administrators control security and permissions for all computers on the domain.
    • The primary purpose of Network Administration in a domain-based network is to manage and maintain the network.

    Workgroup Model vs. Domain Model

    • In a workgroup model (peer-to-peer), each computer must be configured individually, and any computer in the workgroup can be used by anyone.
    • The main difference between a workgroup model and a domain model is the centralized management and security control in a domain model.

    Active Directory Domain Services Administration

    • The Windows Server feature used for automating Active Directory Domain Services administration is PowerShell.

    Domain Controllers and RODCs

    • The main responsibility of domain controllers in a network is to store and manage directory information and authenticate users.
    • The purpose of creating the initial domain controller in a network is to establish the domain.
    • Each domain is identified by its unique domain name.
    • A Read Only Domain Controller (RODC) is used in branch office scenarios to improve security and reduce the risk of data breaches.
    • The main difference between a Read Only Domain Controller (RODC) and a regular domain controller is that an RODC has limited capabilities and is more secure.

    Domain Controllers and Replication

    • When each domain controller replicates changes in its copy of Active Directory to other domain controllers, the network ensures consistency and accuracy of directory information.

    Advantages of Additional Domain Controllers

    • The primary advantage of adding additional domain controllers to a domain is to improve network reliability, scalability, and performance.

    Roles in the Domain Network

    • The role of clients in the domain network is to request access to network resources and services.
    • The function of member servers in the domain network is to provide additional services and applications to clients.

    Windows Server Update Service (WSUS)

    • The purpose of WSUS is to automate the process of installing updates and patches to Windows systems in a network.
