AZ-800 Exam Dumps - Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure

In the Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure objectives for Active Directory group design, group scope and type determine valid membership and usage. The study guidance for group scopes states that a Domain Local group is used to assign permissions in its own domain and “can contain accounts, computer objects, global groups from any domain, and universal groups; it can also contain other domain local groups from the same domain only.” Security-type restrictions also apply: “Security groups can contain only security principals; distribution groups cannot be nested into security groups for access control.”

Applying these rules to Group3 (contoso.com Domain Local Security): it can accept security groups of compatible scopes. From the lists, Group1 (contoso.com Universal Security) and Group2 (contoso.com Global Security) are valid. Distribution groups (Group4, Group5, Group6) are not valid members of a security group used for authorization. Therefore, Group3 ⇒ Group1 and Group2 only.

For Group5 (canada.contoso.com Global Distribution), the scope rule for Global groups is: “Global groups can include user accounts and other global groups from the same domain only; they cannot include universal or domain local groups.” Hence, the only eligible group from the same domain and scope is Group4 (canada.contoso.com Global Distribution). Group6 is domain local (invalid), and cross-domain globals (Group2) are not permitted. Therefore, Group5 ⇒ Group4 only.

To run a container on SRV1 using the mcrmicrosoft.com/windows/servercofe/iis image, publish port 80 on the container to port 5001 on SRV1, and ensure it runs in the background, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Pull the IIS Image First, pull the correct IIS image from the Microsoft Container Registry:

docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore/iis

Step 2: Run the Container Next, run the container with the required port mapping and ensure it runs in the background using the -d flag:

docker run -d -p 5001:80 --name iis_container mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore/iis

This command will start a container named iis_container using the IIS image, map port 80 inside the container to port 5001 on SRV1, and run the container in detached mode.

Step 3: Verify the Container is Running To verify that the container is running and the port is published, use the following command:

docker ps

This will list all running containers and show the port mappings.

Step 4: Access the IIS Server You can now access the IIS server running in the container by navigating to http:// :5001 in a web browser, where is the IP address of SRV1.

Note: Ensure that Docker is installed on SRV1 and that the port 5001 is open on the firewall to allow incoming connections1.

By following these steps, you should be able to run the IIS container on SRV1 with the specified port mapping and have it running in the background. Please replace mcrmicrosoft.com/windows/servercofe/iis with the correct image name mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore/iis as shown in the commands above.

In the Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure guidance for extending AD DS into Azure, Microsoft states that when you place a domain controller in an Azure virtual network you must run DNS on that domain controller and point the VNet to that DNS server: “Domain controllers in Azure IaaS should host the AD-integrated DNS zone, and the virtual network’s DNS server setting must reference those DC/DNS IPs so Azure VMs use AD DNS rather than the Azure-provided resolver.” The materials also emphasize that Azure’s default DNS cannot host or manage AD DS zones, so custom DNS is required for domain-joined workloads. Therefore, to meet the requirement you (1) install the DNS Server role on DC3 so it can host the corp.fabrikam.com AD-integrated zone (F), and (2) configure the DNS Servers setting on Vnet1 to the IP of DC3 (and any additional DCs), ensuring all Azure VMs in Vnet1 resolve the domain via AD DNS (D). Creating a public Azure DNS zone or a Private DNS zone with the same AD name is not appropriate for AD-integrated name resolution. This design also supports the security requirement of preventing domain controllers from relying on Internet-facing resolvers.

In Windows Server AD DS, group scope determines which groups/accounts can be members. The AZ-800 study materials summarize: “Domain Local groups can include accounts, Global groups, and Universal groups from any domain and Domain Local groups from the same domain only. Global groups can include accounts and other Global groups from the same domain only. Universal groups can include *accounts, Global groups, and Universal groups from any domain.” In addition, distribution vs. security does not change the scope membership rules; it only affects whether the group can be assigned permissions.

Applying the rules: Group3 is a Domain Local security group in contoso.com. Therefore it can contain Universal (Group1), Global from any domain (Group2 in contoso.com and Group4/Group5 in canada.contoso.com), but cannot contain a Domain Local from another domain (Group6 in canada.contoso.com). Hence: Group1, Group2, Group4, and Group5 only.

Group5 is a Global distribution group in canada.contoso.com. A Global group can only contain accounts or Global groups from the same domain. From the list, only Group4 (Global distribution, canada.contoso.com) fits. It cannot contain Group1 (Universal), Group2 (Global but different domain), or Group6 (Domain Local). Therefore: Group4 only.

n the Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure guidance for managing AD DS, Microsoft emphasizes using OU-level delegation to satisfy administrative needs while adhering to the principle of least privilege. The documentation explains that the Delegate Control wizard on an OU lets you grant a user or group only the specific permissions required for common tasks, including “Modify the membership of a group”. This grants the write permission to the member attribute on group objects contained in that OU, without giving broader account-management rights across the domain.

By contrast, placing a user in Account Operators or Server Operators provides elevated, domain-wide capabilities far beyond what is required. Account Operators can create, delete, and modify many account types across the domain (except for protected admin accounts), which violates least-privilege for a task that only needs to change group membership in one OU. Server Operators is unrelated to group membership and is intended for server administration tasks. Creating a delegation at the domain root would similarly be excessive because it applies broadly to all containers and OUs.

Therefore, to meet the requirement “Ensure that User1 can manage the membership of all the groups in Contoso\OU3,” you should delegate control on OU3 and assign the built-in task “Modify the membership of a group” to User1, achieving the minimal permissions necessary.

In the Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure materials under Hyper-V management, Microsoft specifies that Enhanced Session Mode changes VMConnect from a raw console attach to a connection that uses Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to the guest. The guide states that Enhanced Session Mode “uses RDP to establish the VMConnect session so the user must supply credentials for a logon to the guest operating system,” and further that it “prevents a second administrator from inheriting an already signed-in console session” because the connection is treated as a new interactive sign-in. In contrast, the default basic console session “attaches directly to the active console without prompting for credentials,” which is exactly the current problem described for VM2.

The same objective area clarifies that other options do not meet the requirement: Guest Services integration only enables file copy and certain host-guest interactions; Credential Guard protects secrets inside Windows by isolating LSASS but does not affect Hyper-V console connection behavior; Shielded VMs provide fabric-level protections and encryption but are not required merely to force credential prompts for VMConnect.

Therefore, to force users to provide credentials when they connect to VM2 and to eliminate inherited console sessions, you should enable Enhanced Session Mode on the Hyper-V host (and ensure the guest supports RDP).
