DHCP is an important concept to understand for any network or systems administrator, as it allows you to automatically assign IP address information to all your endpoints. DNS, meanwhile, is essential to resolve names to IP addresses to make Active Directory and name resolution work correctly. In this course, professor Robert McMillen explains how DHCP and DNS work in the context of a Windows Server 2025 environment. He first shows how to install, manage, troubleshoot, and create all the DHCP settings needed for your network—even remote networks. He then covers the important aspects of DNS—installing, configuring, and troubleshooting Active Directory DNS and standard DNS zones. Robert ends the course with demonstrations on managing both DHCP and DNS using management consoles, PowerShell, IPAM, and Windows Admin Center.
