Managing Modern Desktops Subject.
In this subject we are going to be talking about how to install and configure Microsoft Windows 10 in an enterprise environment. An enterprise can have tens, hundreds or ever thousands of computers and devices that use Windows 10. It would be extremely inefficient to individually setup each device in the same way that you might setup your own computer at home. In this course you will be learning how to use a range of Windows 10 features that provide the efficiency and control that is needed in an enterprise environment.
Australian College of Information Technology (ACIT) is a Microsoft Imagine Academy. This means that you will be using Microsoft Official Curriculum and Microsoft e-Learning courses throughout this subject. You will also be given access to a virtual lab environment hosted on the ACIT servers. We hope you enjoy it.
The subject content and assessment activities are organised into a nominal (suggested) duration of 6 weeks. You may however progress through the subject as quickly or as slowly as you wish. The exception to this is if you are also attending the on campus lecture and lab classes. In this case you will follow the in class schedule. You should progress through the labs and the assessments in the order in which they presented in this course. In some cases you will not be able to complete a lab or assessment unless you have done the previous lab or assessment.
Course Objectives

Lab Environment
Your course instructor will provision a lab environment for you. A lab environment consists of a set of virtual machines which we call a 'Pod'. Each student is allocated to a Pod. The standard setup is that the lab environment is hosted on ACIT servers or cloud. You can request that the lab environment be setup on your own laptop or PC. You can ask your instructor to help you with this. Note you will need at least 8GB of RAM.
The lab environment virtual machines are as follows:
Virtual Machine Name: Use as: 20687D-LON-DC1 Domain controller in the Adatum.com domain 20687D-LON-CL1 Windows 8.1 computer in the Adatum.com domain 20687D-LON-CL2 Windows 8.1 computer in the Adatum.com domain 20687D-LON-CL3 Windows 7 computer in the Adatum.com domain 20687D-LON-CL4 Windows 8.1 computer for scenarios with devices that are not domain members 20687D-LON-REF1 Blank virtual machine used for the reference machine imaging and capture scenario 20687D-LON-SVR1 AD FS server in the Adatum.com domain 20687D-LON-SVR2 Web server in the Adatum.com domain Remote Access
