ASSESSMENT 1
Part 1 (PROJECT)
SCOPE:
The following scenario is required to Develop, Implement and maintain on the virtual machine environment
SCENARIO:
You are working for an IT company and your company is hosting a new server and a desktop operating system using a virtualisation technology. The company wants to host windows server 2019 and Windows 10 Workstation from a workstation PC using a hypervisor software Virtual Box. The workstation PC has Windows 10 operating system. As an IT administrator, it’s your responsibility to create and configure virtualisation on the workstations.
The company wants to attach workstation PC on their existing LAN network as shown in the figure. The local LAN has the network address 192.168.10.0/24, router LAN interface has configured 192.168.1.1/24 and enabled DHCP leasing from IP address 192.168.10.10 to 192.168.10. 201.
Task Instruction:
Based on the above scenario, the students need to write down a report and practically demonstrate the mentioned tasks to the trainer/ assessor. Students are required to submit a report for tasks 1 to 11 and demonstrate tasks 4 to 11 to trainer/assessor by practically implementing the tasks on the virtual machine
Assessment Tasks:
| 1. | Identify the minimum hardware requirements for workstation PC for installation of virtual PCs and hypervisor software. |
| 2. | Write down benefits and features of the VirtualBox. |
| 3. | Identify and explain features of two other virtualization software like VirtualBox. |
| 4. | Write down step by step procedure with the screen shots for installation of a VirtualBox on Workstation PC. |
| 5. | Write down step by step procedure with the screen shots for installation of Windows Server 2019 and Windows 10 on a VirtualBox. |
