I always been assumed that windows server needs a huge resource, even as a virtual machine. but, you just showed that it could be installed by the same resource as linux as vm, 20 GB for storage and 2 GB for memory/RAM. nice vid!

@EastCharmer 5 күн бұрын

Thank you! Well you're right! Windows is usually heavy on resources (that's why I'm not a big fan) but for practice lab, minimum resources are good enough to get started

I have a few suggection. 1. use the Ctrl+Alt+Inst instead, it will send Ctrl+Alt+Del to VM. it is easy to press "any key" during on CD boot prompt. 2. install Vmware Tool after the os installation will got the better screen resolution😃

Thanks!! Yes I forgot to add those in video. Yeah it's easy to press any key prompt but it gets missed easily when you're not paying attention coz it happened to me so it's also good to know if someone encounters it

East Charmer, Hi East Charmer, I wanted to thank you for your insightful video-it truly helped me understand the I.T. work culture better. I have an idea for a potential collaboration that could be beneficial for both of us: preparing a demo of Type 1 hypervisors, such as vSphere or Proxmox, and networking them. The installation of three virtual servers on the Type 1 hypervisor, include Windows Server 2022 as the primary OS MACHINES--> AD/DC DNS, DHCP, and the File Server Resource Manager. For context, I am currently enrolled in the Cybersecurity Network Engineering program at Valencia College here in Florida. We’ve been focusing on Linux, particularly RHEL, given its increasing importance over the next five years. I look forward to the possibility of working together and learning from your expertise. Best regards, The Cyber-Associate | Lifetime Learner🤓

for certification? honestly I don't have experience with Juniper so I'm not that familiar. However, CCNA is a solid cert and they will also teach you the fundamental networking protocols so I think once you learn CISCO, it will be easier to learn other networking concepts
