o Subnet Mark: 255.255.255.0
o Default Gateway: 192.168.10.1
Lab Activity 3: Task Manager to check the Process, Memory.
Open the Client W10 and right click on the Menu bar. The Task bar option
appears:

After Clicking Task Manager, click on More Details:

The below picture appears
Select the Performance tab

Identify the Number of Processes and Threads from the above exhibit
Click on Memory Tab

Identify the Features in Memory

Click on disk

Identify the type and Capacity of the Disk.

Click on the DETAILS tab and identify the status like Running and Suspended

Ask the Student to identify the Status and PID of any exe file.
Lab 4: Configure IP address on Windows Server 2016and W10.
• Check the Network Card/Adapter setting on both machines, it should
be
“Internal Network”. Run both machines. Together now.
• Check your Host Machine RAM and allocate appropriate RAM to
bothvirtual machines as per given table.
Host Machine Allocate RAM Allocate RAM
RAM inGB (GB)to (GB) to
Windows Windows 10
Server
4 1 1
8 2.5 1.5
16 4 4

• Remove the ISO files from the Storage before running both virtual
machines.

Run both virtual

machines
together
Run & Login to Window Run & Login to W10
Server
 Configure manually new IP address on the Window 10 virtual machine.
• Go to Network Setting and assign new IP Address as following
o IP address: 192.168.10.5 (Should be within same subnet
withWindows Server IP address subnet)
o Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
o Default Gateway: 192.168.10.1 (Not necessary to add)
• DNS Address: 192.168.10.2 (This should be same IP address as
yourWindows Server IP Address)
• Click OK Close Close (all tabs). Wait for 1 mint,
virtualmachine will accept new IP Address.
• Now go to Command Prompt and test your new IP Address using
ipconfig
command
• We have got the new IP Address on Windows 10 VM.
• If you cannot get new IP Address, please Restart your machine
andcheck your network adapter setting.
• Test and verify both machines IP addresses, they should be
sameas shown in below picture and configured on the same
subnet.
Windows Server IP address Windows 10 IP address

• Now check the connectivity between “W10” and “Windows

Server2016”
virtual machines by typing “ping” command on both machines.
• PING should be
successful.
• On W10 cmd type ping 192.168.10.2 (our server IP address). This
is to test communication from W10 to Server.

• We can see from the above picture that Ping results are successful,
thismean W10 virtual machine can communicate with Windows
Server.

• Now repeat the same process on Windows Sever. Ping from

Windows Server to W10 virtual machine (IP Address) to check the
connectivity between “Windows Server 2016” & “W10”.

• PING is unsuccessful from Windows Server to W10 virtual

machine. This mean Windows Server virtual machine cannot
communicate withWindows
10. This could be due to firewall blocking or wrong network adapter
setting on both machines. Please check the firewall and network
 adapter setting on both machines again.
To disable Firewall
• Now check the Firewall on both machines.
• On Windows Server 2016 Control Panel System
and Security\Windows Firewall

• Click on left side Turn Windows Firewall on or off

• Click on Domain Networks and Select Turn off Windows Firewall
on Domain Networks
• Close the tab now and refresh the machine.

• Now switch to Windows 10 Control Panel System

and Security\Windows Firewall and repeat same
process
• Select Turn Off Windows Firewall under Private Network Setting

and Public Network Setting click OK

• Close the tab now and refresh the machine.

• Now Ping again from Windows Server to W10 virtual machine (IP
Address) to check the connectivity between “Windows Server
2016”& “W10”.
• PING is successful from Windows Server to W10 virtual
machine. So both machines are on same network.
