Question 8

Trusts between Active Directory domains in a tree are created automatically when you create domains in Windows Server 2008. These are called ____.
A) features
B) forests
C) roles
D) transitive trusts

Accepted Answer

Trusts between Active Directory domains in a tree are transitive trusts, which means that trust relationships can extend to other domains beyond the two domains that were originally involved in establishing the trust. Trusts are automatically created when you create domains in Windows Server 2008. Neither features nor roles are related to trust relationships in Active Directory. Forests refer to a grouping of multiple domain trees.

Question 9

____ allows you to run one or more separate instances of an OS within a single host OS.
A) Server Core
B) Virtualization
C) PowerShell
D) Active Directory

Accepted Answer

The term "virtualization" refers to the ability to run multiple instances of an operating system, or multiple applications, on one physical server. This technology has become increasingly popular in recent years as a means of consolidating server resources and making better use of hardware.

Question 10

Server Core provides support for the .NET Framework and ASP.NET.

Accepted Answer

Server Core does not support the .NET Framework and ASP.NET as it is a minimal installation option for Windows Server, designed to reduce maintenance and attack surface by excluding GUI and certain features.

Question 11

____ is a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP-based standard for resolving computer names with IP addresses.
A) Active Directory
B) Server Core
C) DHCP
D) DNS

Accepted Answer

DNS or Domain Name System is the TCP/IP based standard for resolving computer names with IP addresses. It maps human-readable domain names to IP addresses that computers can understand. This allows users to access websites and other resources using easy-to-remember domain names instead of IP addresses.

Question 12

____ is a way to set up specific configurations for users and computers within an Active Directory domain.
A) Group Policy
B) DHCP
C) DNS
D) Hyper-V

Accepted Answer

Group Policy allows administrators to set up configurations for users and computers within an Active Directory domain. It can be used to set policies for security, software installation, and other settings. DHCP and DNS are network protocols, and Hyper-V is a virtualization platform, which are not specifically related to setting up configurations for users and computers within an Active Directory domain.

Question 13
