HOTSPOT
A company runs multiple Windows virtual machines (VMs) in Azure.
The IT operations department wants to apply the same policies as they have for on-premises VMs to the VMs running in Azure, including domain administrator permissions and schema extensions.
You need to recommend a solution for the hybrid scenario that minimizes the amount of maintenance required.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer: Explanation:
Box 1: Join the VMs to a new domain controller VM in Azure
Azure provides two solutions for implementing directory and identity services in Azure:
✑ (Used in this scenario) Extend your existing on-premises Active Directory infrastructure to Azure, by deploying a VM in Azure that runs AD DS as a Domain Controller. This architecture is more common when the on-premises network and the Azure virtual network (VNet) are connected by a VPN or ExpressRoute connection.
✑ Use Azure AD to create an Active Directory domain in the cloud and connect it to your on-premises Active Directory domain. Azure AD Connect integrates your on-premises directories with Azure AD.
Box 2: Set up VPN connectivity.
This architecture is more common when the on-premises network and the Azure virtual network (VNet) are connected by a VPN or ExpressRoute connection.
