Configure a special IPv6 DHCP scope for PXE clients. D. Replace the router with one that supports multicast.

Note from the Author or Editor:

Last sentence

The sentence "In addition, note that the site-local address still exists, but it is displayed as deprecated, as discussed earlier in this session" is incorrect. The addresses in Fig 2-5, to which this refers, are link-local addresses not site-local. Also, deprecated, in this instance, is in reference to the DAD state, i.e. Tentative, Preferred, Deprecated and Invalid, rather than the status of the site-local address type.

Note from the Author or Editor:
On reflection the sentence "In addition, note that the site-local address still exists, but it is displayed as deprecated, as discussed earlier in this session" at the end of page 55 isn't needed and might be confusing. Please delete this sentence.

Figure 2.6 description

"FIGURE 2-6 Displaying IPv6 addresses and site IDs" Screen shot shows "Scope ID" but I cannot see anywhere in the chapter that explains that Site ID is the same as Scope ID when using the netsh command.

Note from the Author or Editor:
In paragraph after Figure 2.5 on page 56, the first sentence should read "If you are administering an enterprise network with a number of sites you also need to know the site IDs (or scope IDs)."

Exercise 2, step 7

Step 7 of Exercise gives the following command: add address "isatap" fec0:0:0:fffe:0:5efe:10.10.0.50 However, if you have set up VAN-DC1 according to the instructions in the Appendix, its IPv4 address is 10.10.0.10, so the command should be: add address "isatap" fec0:0:0:fffe:0:5efe:10.10.0.10

Note from the Author or Editor:
Change both instances of 10.10.0.50 to 10.10.0.10 on page 99

2nd paragraph

PDF says "Microsoft applies Group Policy objects (GPOs) to groups rather than OUs because groups offer better flexibility for managing various sets of users." Lesson is talking about Password Settings Objects (PSOs) so I think this should say "Microsoft applies Password Settings Objects (PSOs) to groups rather than OUs because groups offer better flexibility for managing various sets of users." GPOs ARE applied to OUs.

Note from the Author or Editor:
Please change the first sentence of the paragraph directly under the Note on page 128 to "Microsoft applies PSOs to groups rather than OUs because groups........." Ian

Figure 3-18 at top of page

On page 164 in the last paragraph it refers to "sever Group Policy settings that enhance the management of OCSP and CRL data use. ... This is shown in Figure 3-18." Figure 3-18 on page 165 shows a screenshot of a Revocation Configuration Name and it's status. Isn't it supposed to show the Certificate Path Validations Settings group policy setting?

Note from the Author or Editor:
Page 164. Delete "This is shown in Figure 3-18" Page 165. Delete Figure 3-18 Page 166. Renumber Figure 3-19 to Figure 3-18 (callout and caption) Page 167. Renumber Figure 3-20 to Figure 3-19 (callout and caption)

2nd question, option C

PDF says "C. Right-click the MyStarterGPO container. Click Back Up. Specify the backup location. Click Back Up." It should say "C. Right-click MyStarterGPO in the Starter GPOs container. Click Back Up. Specify the backup location. Click Back Up."

Note from the Author or Editor:
On page 198, Question 2, Answer C should be "Right-click MyStarterGPO in the Starter GPOs container. Click Back Up. Specify the backup location. Click Back Up."

Question nr. 3

In question nr. 3 on page 198 the body of the question says that we are trying to find policy settings with the term "Internet Settings" in the Comment field. However, the answer on page 657 indicates that option D ("In the Filter For Word(s) section, type Internet Explorer and select Exact.") is one of the correct options. In fact, in the answer it makes no mention of "Internet Settings" but mentions the term 'Internet Explorer' twice (in options B & D). So which term are we really trying to find?

Note from the Author or Editor:
In question 3 on page 198 please replace "internet Settings" with "Internet Explorer" Ian

1st and 2nd Paragrapsh

The wrong command is referenced in the section on "Active Directory Domain Service Database Mounting Tool" at the top of page 623. The text identifies the data mining tool as dsadmin.exe in the first and second paragraphs. Should it not be dsamain.exe?

Note from the Author or Editor:
Change 3 instances of dsadmin.exe on page 623 to dsamain.exe

Appendix A

Appendix A Exercise 4 Step 3 has the instructions to set the static IP address of 10.10.0.21 to a server computer named VAN-SRV2 Appendix A Exercise 5 Step 3 has the instructions to set the static IP address of 10.10.0.21 to a client computer named VAN-CL1 The same static IP address is used twice. I foresee this causing DNS issues.

Note from the Author or Editor:
Alter Exercise 5 step 3 to Netsh interface ipv4 set address "Local Area Connection" static 10.10.0.31

Appendix A Exercise 5

Appendix A Exercise 5 Step 4 has the command to rename Windows 7 client comptuer as follows: netdom renamecomputer %computername% /newname:VAN-CL1 Appendix A Exercise 5 Step 6 has the command to join a Windows 7 client comptuer to the domain as follows: netdom join VAN-CL1 /domain:adatum Netdom is NOT included with Windows 7 by default and the command will fail. It can be added with the Remote Server Administration Tools. Really though the book should use the powershell command Add-Computer instead.

Note from the Author or Editor:
The following modifications are to be made to Exercise 5 in the Appendix: Add the following to Step 3 after the comand "netsh interface ..." netsh interface ipv4 set dnsservers "Local Area Connection" static 10.10.0.10 primary Change Step 4 to the following Hold down the Windows Key and the Break Key to open the System Properties dialog box.
