You learned the
different ways to access Server Manager and found out that it replaces and pulls together
disparate tools and consoles into a unified view. Server Manager is a truly consolidated
portal to all your server management needs. Not only does it give you a bird??™s eye view
of what??™s installed on your server and its general health status, but you can use it to act
quickly on issues or make changes to your system with very few mouse clicks. Server
Manager gives you the ability to perform effective server administration without needing
to launch a multitude of tools.
Windows Server 2008 is built around roles, features, and security. You need to understand
the difference between roles and features before you can effectively deploy Windows
Server 2008 in your environment. We went heavily into the workings of Windows Firewall
with Advanced Security. The firewall is now a truly integral part of the Windows Server
product, and you should learn it well and leverage it whenever possible. By combining
a minimal installation strategy and following good Windows Update and firewall practices,
you will be able to create a more stable and secure Windows Server environment for your
organization.
