The two Windows Server VMs can be combined into a single VM to conserve RAM and disk space if required. However, instructions in this guide assume two server systems are used. Using two servers enables Active Directory Domain Services and DHCP to be installed on a server that is not directly connected to the corporate network. This mitigates the risk of clients on the corporate network receiving DHCP leases from the PoC network (i.e. "rogue" DHCP), and limits NETBIOS service broadcasts.

This command will display the megabytes of RAM available for VMs. On a Hyper-V host computer with 16 GB of physical RAM installed, 10,000 MB of RAM or greater should be available if the computer is not also running other applications. On a computer with 8 GB of physical RAM installed, at least 4000 MB should be available. If the computer has less RAM available than this, try closing applications to free up more memory.
3. Determine the available memory for VMs by dividing the available RAM by 4. For example:
-
+ ```powershell

+ ```powershell
Start-VM DC1
vmconnect localhost DC1
-
+ ```
2. Click **Next** to accept the default settings, read the license terms and click **I accept**, provide an administrator password of pass@word1, and click **Finish**.
3. Click **Ctrl+Alt+Del** in the upper left corner of the virtual machine connection window, and then sign in to DC1 using the Administrator account.
4. Right-click **Start**, point to **Shut down or sign out**, and click **Sign out**. The VM connection will reset and a new connection dialog box will appear enabling you to choose a custom display configuration. Select a desktop size, click **Connect** and sign in again with the local Administrator account. Note: Signing in this way ensures that [enhanced session mode](/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/learn-more/Use-local-resources-on-Hyper-V-virtual-machine-with-VMConnect) is enabled. It is only necessary to do this the first time you sign in to a new VM.
5. If DC1 is configured as described in this guide, it will currently be assigned an APIPA address, have a randomly generated hostname, and a single network adapter named "Ethernet." Open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt on DC1 and type or paste the following commands to provide a new hostname and configure a static IP address and gateway:
-
+ ```powershell
Rename-Computer DC1
New-NetIPAddress -InterfaceAlias Ethernet -IPAddress 192.168.0.1 -PrefixLength 24 -DefaultGateway 192.168.0.2
Set-DnsClientServerAddress -InterfaceAlias Ethernet -ServerAddresses 192.168.0.1,192.168.0.2

6. Install the Active Directory Domain Services role by typing the following command at an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt:
-
+ ```powershell
Install-WindowsFeature -Name AD-Domain-Services -IncludeAllSubFeature -IncludeManagementTools
-
+ ```
7. Before promoting DC1 to a Domain Controller, you must reboot so that the name change in step 3 above takes effect. To restart the computer, type the following command at an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt:
-
+ ```powershell
Restart-Computer
-
+ ```
8. When DC1 has rebooted, sign in again and open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt. Now you can promote the server to be a domain controller. The directory services restore mode password must be entered as a secure string. Type the following commands at the elevated Windows PowerShell prompt:
-
+ ```powershell
$pass = "pass@word1" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
Install-ADDSForest -DomainName contoso.com -InstallDns -SafeModeAdministratorPassword $pass -Force
-
+ ```
Ignore any warnings that are displayed. The computer will automatically reboot upon completion.
9. When the reboot has completed, reconnect to DC1, sign in using the CONTOSO\Administrator account, open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt, and use the following commands to add a reverse lookup zone for the PoC network, add the DHCP Server role, authorize DHCP in Active Directory, and suppress the post-DHCP-install alert:
-
+ ```powershell
Add-DnsServerPrimaryZone -NetworkID "192.168.0.0/24" -ReplicationScope Forest
Add-WindowsFeature -Name DHCP -IncludeManagementTools
netsh dhcp add securitygroups
Restart-Service DHCPServer
Add-DhcpServerInDC dc1.contoso.com 192.168.0.1
Set-ItemProperty -Path registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ServerManager\Roles\12 -Name ConfigurationState -Value 2
-
+ ```
10. Next, add a DHCP scope and set option values:
-
+ ```powershell
Add-DhcpServerv4Scope -Name "PoC Scope" -StartRange 192.168.0.100 -EndRange 192.168.0.199 -SubnetMask 255.255.255.0 -Description "Windows 10 PoC" -State Active

- >The -Force option is necessary when adding scope options to skip validation of 192.168.0.2 as a DNS server because we have not configured it yet. The scope should immediately begin issuing leases on the PoC network. The first DHCP lease that will be issued is to vEthernet interface on the Hyper-V host, which is a member of the internal network. You can verify this by using the command: Get-DhcpServerv4Lease -ScopeId 192.168.0.0.

You can verify this by using the command: Get-DhcpServerv4Lease -ScopeId 192.168.0.0.
11. The DNS server role will also be installed on the member server, SRV1, at 192.168.0.2 so that we can forward DNS queries from DC1 to SRV1 to resolve Internet names without having to configure a forwarder outside the PoC network. Since the IP address of SRV1 already exists on DC1's network adapter, it will be automatically added during the DCPROMO process. To verify this server-level DNS forwarder on DC1, type the following command at an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt on DC1:
-
+ ```powershell
Get-DnsServerForwarder
-
+ ```
The following output should be displayed:
-
+ ```powershell
UseRootHint : True
Timeout(s) : 3
EnableReordering : True
IPAddress : 192.168.0.2
ReorderedIPAddress : 192.168.0.2

-
+ ```powershell

+ ```
**Configure service and user accounts**
Windows 10 deployment with MDT and Microsoft Endpoint Manager requires specific accounts to perform some actions. Service accounts will be created to use for these tasks. A user account is also added in the contoso.com domain that can be used for testing purposes. In the test lab environment, passwords are set to never expire.

In this example, the poc-internal network interface at 192.168.0.2 is associated with the "Ethernet" interface and the Internet-facing poc-external interface is associated with the "Ethernet 2" interface. If your interfaces are different, you must adjust the commands provided in the next step appropriately to configure routing services. Also note that if the "Ethernet 2" interface has an IP address in the 192.168.0.100-105 range then it likely is getting a DHCP lease from DC1 instead of your corporate network. If this is the case, you can try removing and re-adding the second network interface from the SRV1 VM through its Hyper-V settings.

31. To configure SRV1 with routing capability for the PoC network, type or paste the following commands at an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt on SRV1:
-
+ ```powershell
Install-RemoteAccess -VpnType Vpn
cmd /c netsh routing ip nat install

cmd /c netsh routing ip nat add interface name="Ethernet" mode=PRIVATE
cmd /c netsh routing ip nat add interface name="Internal" mode=PRIVATE

32. The DNS service on SRV1 also needs to resolve hosts in the `contoso.com` domain. This can be accomplished with a conditional forwarder. Open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt on SRV1 and type the following command:
-
+ ```powershell
Add-DnsServerConditionalForwarderZone -Name contoso.com -MasterServers 192.168.0.1
-
+ ```
33. In most cases, this completes configuration of the PoC network. However, if your corporate network has a firewall that filters queries from local DNS servers, you will also need to configure a server-level DNS forwarder on SRV1 to resolve Internet names. To test whether or not DNS is working without this forwarder, try to reach a name on the Internet from DC1 or PC1, which are only using DNS services on the PoC network. You can test DNS with the ping command, for example:
-
+ ```powershell
ping www.microsoft.com
-
+ ```
If you see "Ping request could not find host `www.microsoft.com`" on PC1 and DC1, but not on SRV1, then you will need to configure a server-level DNS forwarder on SRV1. To do this, open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt on SRV1 and type the following command.
- **Note**: This command also assumes that "Ethernet 2" is the external-facing network adapter on SRV1. If the external adapter has a different name, replace "Ethernet 2" in the command below with that name:
