Description Data can move around networks or stay in place on storage devices. Desktop administrators need to handle both situations, and that’s exactly what this course covers, including details on IP configuration, mobile networks, NTFS permissions, and OneDrive.

After you’ve installed Windows 10/11, configured the user interface, and set up your accounts, it’s time to get connected. In this Configuring Windows 10/11 Connectivity and Storage course, you’ll learn how to set up, deploy, and troubleshoot network connections and provide secure data storage. First, you’ll learn how to configure IP addressing and name resolution, using both graphical and command-line tools to check and diagnose low-level connectivity. Next, you’ll learn how to configure Wi-Fi connections, including tunneling and authentication protocols, and create the many different types of virtual private networks supported in Windows. Then you’ll learn how to provision Wi-Fi and VPN connections for users using tools like Windows Configuration Designer and Intune. Finally, you’ll learn how to manage local storage using Disk Management and Storage Spaces to create logical drives and NTFS permissions and conditions to secure those drives. When you complete this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge to set up Windows 10/11 network connections and storage resources so your systems are reliably connected to the rest of your organization without increasing the risk of data leakage on local storage devices. This course aligns with the learning objectives for the new MD-100 exam to earn Modern Desktop Administrator Associate certification.
