Lab Setup: First Steps
Download the Eval of Server 2022/19/16
Any are fine for our purposes
Recommended version:
- Datacenter edition (Standard will work)
- Server “with Desktop Experience”

180-day eval from Microsoft:


- Google “Microsoft Evaluation Center”
plus the name of your language for the
localized download site. For example:
- “Microsoft evaluation center French” >
www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/evalcenter
Download the Eval of Windows 10/11

Recommended version:
- Windows 10, Enterprise edition

90-day eval from Microsoft:


- Google “Microsoft Evaluation Center”
plus the name of your language for the
localized download site
Set up a VM Host
Host system recommendations:
- Windows Server 2022, 2019, or 2016
- 16 GB RAM
- 75 GB storage (SSD is best!)
- Windows 10/11 with Client Hyper-V

Hyper-V Server Role


- Requires 64-bit OS, HAV support
- Other platforms should be fine
(VMware, VirtualBox)
Internet connectivity for some demos
Checking MSINFO32 for Hyper-V Compatibility
If you are new to Hyper-V, I suggest
watching my course, Implementing
Windows Server 2019 Hyper-V.

It will give you a great foundation in


Hyper-V and you will be able to follow the
guidelines in this module more easily.
Build Your VMs

Choose dynamically expanding hard drive,


VHDX, on SSD if possible
Configure guests for multiprocessor
support if available
1 GB RAM minimum per guest,
2 GB preferable
Windows Server 2022/19/16 (3X)
Windows 10/11 (2X)
Build Your Virtual Switches

Two private, one external:


Globomantics Denver
- Private network type (in Hyper-V)

Globomantics Internet (External)


- External network type

Globomantics Internet (Private)


- Private network type
Virtual Machine Setup
