                                      Question #1

                                      Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a domain controller named DC1 that runs Windows Server 2012.
                                      You have a Group Policy object (GPO) named GPO1 that contains several custom Administrative templates.
                                      You need to filter the GPO to display only settings that will be removed from the registry when the GPO falls out of scope. The solution must only display settings that are either enabled or disabled and that have a comment.
                                      How should you configure the filter?
                                      To answer, select the appropriate options below. Select three.

                                      Question #2

                                      Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
                                      An organizational unit (OU) named ResearchServers contains the computer accounts of all research servers.
                                      All domain users are configured to have a minimum password length of eight characters.
                                      You need to ensure that the minimum password length of the local user accounts on the research servers in the ResearchServers OU is 10 characters.
                                      What should you do?

                                      • A. Create a universal group that contains the research servers. Create a Password Settings object (PSO) and assign the PSO to the group.
                                      • B. Configure a local Group Policy object (GPO) on each research server.
                                      • C. Create a global group that contains the research servers. Create a Password Settings object (PSO) and assign the PSO to the group.
                                      • D. Create and link a Group Policy object (GPO) to the ResearchServers OU.

                                      Question #3

                                      HOTSPOT
                                      Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains the users shown in the following table.

                                      You have a Network Policy Server (NPS) server that has the network policies shown in the following table.

                                      User1, User2, and User3 plan to connect to the network by using a VPN. You need to identify which network policy will apply to each user.
                                      What should you identify?
                                      To answer, select the appropriate policy for each user in the answer area.

                                      Correct Answer:


                                      When you configure multiple network policies in NPS, the policies are an ordered list of rules. NPS evaluates the policies in listed order from first to last. If there is a network policy that matches the connection request, NPS uses the policy to determine whether to grant or deny access to the user or computer connection.
                                      Network policies are evaulated according to the processing order. Once a match is found, no further network policy is processed.
                                      Policies are processed in this order:
                                      -Policy2 (applies only to members of Group1)
                                      -Policy1 (applies to all users during specified time slot)
                                      -Policy3 (applies only to members of Group2)
                                      Since policy1 will always apply (sunday 0:00 to saturday 24:00 = always), policy3 will never be evaluated.
                                      Correct answer is :
                                      User1: Policy2
                                      User2: Policy1
                                      User3: Policy1

                                      Question #4

                                      HOTSPOT
                                      Your network contains one Active Directory forest named contoso.com.
                                      All client computers for the sales department are in an organizational unit (OU) named Sales. All of the sales department computers run Windows 8.1.
                                      You plan to use Group Policy preferences to map several drives on the sales department computers.
                                      You need to perform the following actions:
                                      * Create a drive mapping on all of the sales department computers for drive X. If drive X already exists, the current drive mapping should NOT be modified.
                                      * Create a drive mapping on all of the sales department computers for drive Y. If drive Y already exists, the UNC path must be modified, but all other settings must be maintained.
                                      Which action should you use for each drive mapping? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

                                      Correct Answer:


                                      Create - If a drive mapping doesn't exist for this user for the share "\shareuserDocuments", then create one. If there already is one, don't do anything! It's a kind, gentle sort of policy, it won't overwrite anything you already have, so it has a Green icon associated in the UI.
                                      Update - If that drive mapping exists, it will be updated with the settings specified here. If there are other settings associated with the drive mapping that aren't specified here, they will be maintained.
                                      If no drive mapping exists for this share, create it.

                                      HOTSPOT
                                      Your network contains a DNS server named Server1. Server1 hosts a DNS zone for contoso.com.
                                      You need to ensure that DNS clients cache records from contoso.com for a maximum of one hour.
                                      Which value should you modify in the Start of Authority (SOA) record? To answer, select the appropriate setting in the answer area.

                                      Explanation: Minimum TTL - The minimum time-to-live value applies to all resource records in the zone file. This value is supplied in query responses to inform other servers how long they should keep the data in cache. The default value is 3,600.
