You are a network administrator for a global company that has Windows Server 2008 R2 servers and Windows 7 Enterprise computers.
Management wants to decrease VPN costs by implementing DirectAccess for remote network access.
They assign you to evaluate the current network infrastructure, which includes the following elements:
• Active Directory
• IPv6 network and applications
• Server for DirectAccess service
You need to ensure that all critical infrastructure components are present.
What should you add to the infrastructure?
A. Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) server
B. Public key infrastructure
C. NAT-PT devices
D. Windows Server 2012
Correct Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
DirectAccess With Windows Server 2008 R2 requires:
* Public key infrastructure (PKI) to issue computer certificates.
* One or more DirectAccess servers running Windows Server 2008 R2 with two network adapters: one that is connected directly to the Internet, and a second that is connected to the intranet.
* On the DirectAccess server, at least two consecutive, public IPv4 addresses assigned to the network adapter that is connected to the Internet.
* DirectAccess clients running Windows 7 or Windows 8 "Enterprise" edition clients
* At least one domain controller and Domain Name System (DNS) server running Windows Server 2008 SP2 or Windows Server 2008 R2.
Note: DirectAccess, also known as Unified Remote Access, is a VPN-like technology that provides intranet connectivity to client computers when they are connected to the Internet. Unlike many traditional VPN connections, which must be initiated and terminated by explicit user action, DirectAccess connections are designed to connect automatically as soon as the computer connects to the Internet. DirectAccess was introduced in Windows Server 2008 R2, providing this service to Windows 7 and Windows 8 "Enterprise" edition clients.
