## What is MDT
MDT is a unified collection of tools, processes, and guidance for automating desktop and server deployment. In addition to reducing deployment time and standardizing desktop and server images, MDT enables you to more easily manage security and ongoing configurations. MDT builds on top of the core deployment tools in the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) with additional guidance and features designed to reduce the complexity and time required for deployment in an enterprise environment.
MDT supports the deployment of Windows 10, as well as Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server. It also includes support for zero-touch installation (ZTI) with Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager.
See [Get started with the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT)](get-started-with-the-microsoft-deployment-toolkit.md) for more details, including a description of many of the key features and options available in MDT. A list of components that support Lite Touch Installation (LTI) is also provided.
To download the latest version of MDT, visit the [MDT resource page](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=618117).
## Proof-of-concept environment
For the purposes of this guide we will use the following servers and client machines: DC01, MDT01, CM01, PC0001, and PC0002.

## Introduction
MDT is one of the most important tools available to IT professionals today. You can use it to create reference images or as a complete deployment solution. MDT also can be used to extend the operating system deployment features available in [Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/configmgr/).
The Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) is a unified collection of tools, processes, and guidance for automating desktop and server deployment. You can use it to create reference images or as a complete deployment solution. MDT is one of the most important tools available to IT professionals today.
In addition to familiarizing you with the features and options available in MDT, this topic will walk you through the process of preparing for deploying Windows 10 using MDT by configuring Active Directory, creating an organizational unit (OU) structure, creating service accounts, configuring log files and folders, and installing the tools needed to view the logs and continue with the deployment process.
In addition to reducing deployment time and standardizing desktop and server images, MDT enables you to more easily manage security and ongoing configurations. MDT builds on top of the core deployment tools in the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) with additional guidance and features designed to reduce the complexity and time required for deployment in an enterprise environment.
MDT supports the deployment of Windows 10, as well as Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server. It also includes support for zero-touch installation (ZTI) with [Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/configmgr/).

**Note**  
The easiest way to view log files is to use Configuration Manager Trace (CMTrace), which is included in the [System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager Toolkit](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=734717).
## Monitoring
On the deployment share, you also can enable monitoring. After you enable monitoring, you will see all running deployments in the Monitor node in the Deployment Workbench.
