**Important**: This guide leverages the proof of concept (PoC) environment configured using procedures in [Step by step guide: Configure a test lab to deploy Windows 10](windows-10-poc.md). Please complete all steps in the prerequisite guide before starting this guide.
The PoC environment is a virtual network running on Hyper-V with three virtual machines:
The PoC environment is a virtual network running on Hyper-V with three virtual machines (VMs):
- **DC1**: A contoso.com domain controller, DNS server, and DHCP server.
- **SRV1**: A dual-homed contoso.com domain member server, DNS server, and default gateway providing NAT service for the PoC network.
- **PC1**: A contoso.com member computer running Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 8.1 that has been shadow-copied from a physical computer on your corporate network for use in this guide.
- **PC1**: A contoso.com member computer running Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 8.1 that has been shadow-copied from a physical computer on your corporate network.
This guide leverages the Hyper-V server role to perform procedures.

## In this guide
This guide provides instructions to install and configure the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) to deploy a Windows 10 image.
## Install the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT)
Topics and procedures in this guide are summarized in the following table. An estimate of the time required to complete each procedure is also provided. Time required to complete procedures will vary depending on the resources available to the Hyper-V host and assigned to VMs, such as processor speed, memory allocation, disk speed, and network speed.

## About MDT
MDT performs deployments by using the Lite Touch Installation (LTI), Zero Touch Installation (ZTI), and User-Driven Installation (UDI) deployment methods.
- LDI is the deployment method used in the current guide, requiring only MDT and performed with a minimum amount of user interaction.
- ZTI is fully automated, requiring no user interaction and is performed using MDT and System Center Configuration Manager. After completing the steps in the current guide, see [Step by step: Deploy Windows 10 in a test lab using System Center Configuration Manager](windows-10-poc-sc-config-mgr.md) to use the ZTI deployment method in the PoC environment.
- UDI requires manual intervention to respond to installation prompts such as machine name, password and language settings. UDI requires MDT and System Center Configuration Manager.
## Install MDT

## Create a deployment share and reference image
A reference image serves as the foundation for Windows 10 devices in your organization.
1. In [Step by step guide: Configure a test lab to deploy Windows 10](windows-10-poc.md), the Windows 10 Enterprise .iso file was saved to the c:\VHD directory as **c:\VHD\w10-enterprise.iso**. The first step in creating a deployment share is to mount this file on SRV1. To mount the Windows 10 Enterprise DVD on SRV1, open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt on the Hyper-V host computer and type the following command:
