Server Core is a stripped-down version of Windows Server, offering many benefits to network administrators. It's lighter on memory and CPU consumption, is more secure, and requires less maintenance than the full version of Windows Server. In this course Mike Pfeiffer shows how to implement Server Core and perform routine admin tasks locally and across a network with PowerShell and different remote administration tools. These tasks include assigning IPs, renaming servers, joining domains, creating and managing users, configuring disks and volumes, and more. Mike also shows how to install updates so you can make sure your systems always run smoothly.

* Understanding the benefits of Server Cover

* Installing Server Core

* Adjusting server settings

* Configuring the Windows firewall

* Managing server roles and features
