Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 243

Your network contains an on-premises Active Directory domain. The domain contains 25 servers that run Windows Server 2016.
You have a hybrid deployment of Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
You plan to manage the servers by using Windows Admin Center.
You install Windows Admin Center on one of the servers.
You need to ensure that connections to Windows Admin Center are authenticated by using multi-factor authentication (MFA).
What should you do first?

Answer options

• A. Install an extension to Windows Admin Center
• B. Configure Allowed groups
• C. Register the gateway to Azure AD
• D. Import a certificate by using Windows Admin Center

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The first step to enable multi-factor authentication for Windows Admin Center is to register the gateway to Azure AD, as this establishes the necessary integration with Azure's identity services. The other options, such as installing extensions, configuring allowed groups, or importing certificates, are not prerequisites for enabling MFA and do not facilitate the connection to Azure AD.
