Introduction to Windows Server


Windows Server 2003 Network Administration
Goals

• To ensure that network resources such as files,


folders, and printers are available to users
• To secure the network so that available resources
are only accessible to users who have been
granted the proper permissions

3
Windows Server 2003 Editions

• Multiple versions of Windows Server 2003 exist


• Each version is defined to meet the need of a
certain market segment
• Versions Include:
Standard Edition
Enterprise Edition
Datacenter Edition
Web Edition

4
Standard Edition

• Designed for everyday needs of small to medium


businesses .
• Provides file and print services, secure Internet
connectivity, centralized management of network
resources
• Logical upgrade path for Windows 2000 Server
• Can be used as a domain controller, member server,
or standalone server

5
Standard Edition (continued)

6
Enterprise Edition

• Generally used for medium to large businesses


• Designed for organizations that require better
performance, reliability, and availability than
Standard Edition provides
• Provides support for mission-critical applications
• Available in both 32 and 64-bit editions

7
Enterprise Edition (continued)

8
Datacenter Edition

• Designed for mission-critical (essential service


necessary for normal operations) applications, very large
databases, and information access that requires
the highest levels of availability

9
Datacenter Edition Continued

10
Web Edition

• Lower-cost edition
• Designed for hosting and deploying Web services
and applications
• Meant for small to large companies or departments
that develop and/or deploy Web services

11
Web Edition (continued)

12
Windows Networking Concepts Overview

• Two different security models used in Windows


environments
• Workgroup
• Domain
• Three roles for a Windows Server 2003 system in a
network
• Standalone server
• Member server
• Domain controller

13
Workgroups

• A workgroup is a logical group of computers


• Characterized by a decentralized security and
administration model
• Authentication provided by a local account database –
Security Accounts Manager (SAM)
• Limitations
• Users need unique accounts on each workstation
• Users manage their own accounts (security issues)
• Not very scalable

14
Domain Controllers and Member Servers
When you install Windows Server on a new system, you can configure
the server to be member server, a domain controller, or a stand alone server.

• The differences between these types of servers is extremely important.


• Member servers: are a part of a domain but don’t store directory
information.
• Domain controllers: are distinguished from member servers because
• they store directory information
• And provide authentication and directory services for the domain.
• Stand-alone servers: aren’t a part of a domain
• And have their own user database.
• Because of this, stand-alone servers also authenticate logon requests themselves.

Domains

• A domain is a logical group of computers


• Characterized by centralized authentication and
administration
• Authentication provided through centralized Active
Directory
• Active Directory database can be physically distributed
across domain controllers
• Requires at least one system configured as a domain
controller

16
Member Servers

• A member server
• Has an account in a domain
• Is not configured as a domain controller
• Typically used for file, print, application, and host network
services
• All 4 Windows Server 2003 Editions can be configured as
member servers

17
Domain Controllers

• Explicitly configured to store a copy of Active


Directory
• Service user authentication requests
• Service queries about domain objects

Understanding and Using Server Roles:

• Any server can support one or more of the following server roles:

• Application server: provides XML Web services(code, decode data), Web

applications, and distributed applications (telephone and cellular networks).

• DHCP server: A server that runs the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP)

• And can automatically assign Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to clients on the

network.
IP Addressing
• A computer somewhere in the world needs to communicate with
another computer somewhere else in the world.
• For this level of communication, we need a global addressing
scheme; we called this logical address or IP address.
• The IP address is 32 bits in length.
• IP addresses are unique. They are unique in the sense that each
address defines one, and only one, connection to the Internet.
• Two devices on the Internet can never have the same address at
the same time.
Cont.

• On the other hand, if a device operating at the network layer


has m connections to the Internet, it needs to have m
addresses.
• There are two prevalent notations to show an IP address:
binary notation and dotted decimal notation.
Binary Notation

• In binary notation, the IP address is displayed as 32 bits.


• Each octet is often referred to as a byte.
• Example:
01110101 10010101 00011101 00000010
Dotted-Decimal Notation

• To make the IP address more compact and easier to read.


• The IP address is written in decimal form with a decimal point (dot)
separating the bytes.
• Example: 117.149.29.2
• Note that because each byte (octet) is 8 bits, each number in dotted-
decimal notation is a value ranging from 0 to 255.

• DNS server: A server that runs DNS resolves computer names to IP addresses

and vice versa.

• This option installs DNS and starts the DNS Server Wizard.

• Domain controller:A server that provides directory services for the domain

• And has a directory store.

• Domain controllers also manage the logon process and directory searches.
DNS Example:

• File server: A server that serves and manages access to files.

• Mail server (POP3, SMTP): A server that provides

• basic Post Office Protocol3 (POP3)

• Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail services

• so that POP3 mail clients can send and receive mail in the domain.
Continue…

• Print server: A server that provides and manages access to network printers.

• print queues, and printer drivers.

• Remote access/VPN server: A server that routes network traffic and

manages dial-up networking or VPN.

• Server cluster node: A server that operates as part of a group of servers

working together called a cluster.


Print Server, VPN, Server Cluster Node Example

• Streaming media server: A server that provides streaming media content to

other systems on the network or the Internet.

• WINS server: A server that runs Windows Internet Name Service (WINS)

• resolves NetBIOS names to IP addresses and vice versa.
