You have been contacted by an upstart company in Calgary, BeesKnees Inc. They have asked you to set up their infrastructure including creating and naming their domain. Nothing too complicated right now. They will have the following requirements for their network:

$$ A Microsoft server running Active Directory, DNS and Routing and Remote Access

$$ A Linux server hosting DHCP

$2$ Microsoft Windows clients, joined to the domain, to be shared by their $5$ employees $($Simon Bee, Trish Bee, Ernie Knee, Veronica Knee, Erica Inc$)$ who all require a private, secured home folder $($visible to the users as the H:$/$ drive$)$ to which only the owner of the folder has access

$$ All machines must be able to ping each other by hostname and IP address

$$ Servers require static addressing while the client machines will receive a dynamic addressing from DHCP

$$ All machines must have access to the internet

$$ All machines, including Linux, must follow some sort of logical naming convention for their hostnames

$$ Only the Windows server will have an external internet connection. The other machines will be connected by a LAN segment, similar to the diagram below

If all goes well with this implementation there is a strong possibility that BeesKnees Inc may contact, you again in the future for work.

NOTE:

$-$ This is an individual assignment. Your work must be yours and original.

$-$ You will be submitting a document with screenshots demonstrating aspects of the assignment.

$***$It is recommended that you take a backup of your environment when you are finished. This network can be used for future assignments$***$
