Lab#5: Managing and Maintaining DHCP


Preparation
• Save a copy of the Word answer sheet file and record all of your answers and screenshots for the lab into that document
• Ensure your servers have the correct computer names and your vm windows are labeled the same.

SCENARIO

After completing this lab, you will be able to:

▪ Install the DHCP role

▪ Authorize a DHCP Server

▪ Configure split scopes

▪ Configure DHCP Failover

▪ Configure DHCP Name Protection

Estimated lab time: 55 minutes

Exercise 5.1 Installing the DHCP Role


Overview In this exercise, you will install a second adatum.com DHCP server
on LON-SVR1.
Mindset DHCP has been included with Windows for years and is included with
Windows Server 2016 as a server role. Starting with Windows Server
2012, DHCP supports failover capability. In Active Directory Domain
Services (AD DS) environments, domain-joined Windows DHCP servers
must be authorized to service DHCP client requests. By forcing DHCP
servers to be authorized, clients are protected from rogue domain-joined
Windows DHCP servers that might maliciously affect network clients.
Completion time 15 minutes

1. Log on to LON-SVR1 as adatum\administrator with the password of Pa$$w0rd.

2. In Server Manager, click Manage > Add Roles and Features.

Close the DHCP console on LON-SVR1; the rest of this lab will completed on LON-DC1.

Exercise 5.2 Configuring Split Scopes


Overview In this exercise, you will configure a DHCP split scope.
Mindset For years, if you wanted high availability, you would use a split-scope
configuration, also known as the 80/20 configuration. Split-scope
configuration uses two DHCP servers, with the same scopes and options.
However, the scopes have complementary exclusion ranges, so that there is
no overlap in the addresses that they lease clients. You do not want the two
servers to distribute the same address to different clients.
Completion time 20 minutes

Exercise 5.3 Configuring DHCP Failover


Overview In this exercise, you will configure a DHCP Failover using two DHCP

between two DHCP servers for IPv4 scopes and subnets. If one DHCP
server fails or becomes overloaded, the other server services the clients for
the entire subnet.

Lab Challenge Configuring DHCP Name Protection


Overview In this exercise, to help protect against non-Microsoft systems
from overwriting systems that use static addresses, you will
enable DHCP Name Protection.
Mindset If an organization uses only Windows systems that are part of an
Active Directory domain, each computer will have its own unique
computer name, which DHCP registers in DNS on behalf of the
client. Name squatting is when a non-Windows-based computer
registers a name in DNS that is already registered to a Windows-
based computer. To prevent non-Microsoft systems from overwriting
systems that use static addresses, Windows Server 2012 introduced
DHCP Name Protection to prevent these conflicts.
Completion time 5 minutes
