Networking with Windows Server 2022 Training

This five-day course will provide you with the knowledge and skills required to configure the networking features in Windows Server 2022, to automate and consolidate networking processes and resources, easily connect private clouds with public cloud services, and connect users to IT resources and services across physical boundaries. You will learn how to configure some of the key networking features, such as IP addressing, IP Address Management (IPAM), Domain Name System (DNS), and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Remote Access technologies, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). You will learn how to integrate your branch office networks and network infrastructure with Hyper-V and use advanced Hyper-V networking features. You will be introduced to software defined networking.
