Audience |
| | No experience with any previous version of Exchange Server is necessary. IT professionals who are preparing to install and/or migrate to Exchange 2007 from other email platforms (GroupWise, Lotus Notes, etc) are the perfect audience, as are professionals who have had very limited exposure to Exchange in the past but find that their future responsibilities will require more specialized Exchange knowledge. The prospective student should have at least 3 years experience working in the IT field-typically in the areas of network administration, help desk, or system administration.
|
Prerequisites |
| | - Working knowledge of the Windows Server 2003 operating system. For example, knowing how storage is configured, basic backup and restoration techniques, NTFS permissions knowledge, and basic group usage (global, domain local, etc) would all be very useful concepts to understand before attending class.
- Working knowledge of Active Directory, to include user account management, Active Directory partitions and their usage, basic architectures (domain, forest, sites, etc.), Global catalog usage, and domain controller management. Of extreme importance is having at least a high-level understanding of what sites and site links are, and how domain controllers use sites for replication.
- Microsoft Management Console (MMC) - procedure for adding snap-ins
- Active Directory Users and Computers console usage
- Active Directory Sites and Services console usage
- Internet Information Services (IIS) Administration console experience would be helpful but is not required
- Conceptual understanding of DNS
- Conceptual understanding of firewalls.
