Configuring Windows Server Hybrid Advanced Services — Question 62

Your network contains an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain named contoso.com. The domain was built by using domain controllers that run Windows Server 2025.

You plan to deploy a custom app. The app will require a domain controller that runs a legacy version of Windows Server.

What is the oldest version of Windows Server that you can use for the domain controller in contoso.com?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The oldest version of Windows Server that can operate in a domain with Windows Server 2025 is Windows Server 2016, as it is backward compatible with newer versions. The other options, Windows Server 2019, 2022, and 2025, are either newer or the same version and do not meet the requirement for a legacy version.
