1. TechPro is a networking technology solutions company that provides Proof of Concept (POC) designs to its clients. These designs demonstrate the applications of technological concepts in a virtual lab environment. Now, a client is required to access some data files to verify and validate the lab design. These files are stored in the E:\Labfiles folder in the LON-CL1 machine. However, the client is using the LON-CL2 machine to access the lab design. Ryan, the Desktop Administrator, needs to provide access of this folder to the client, as per the following details: The E:\Labfiles\Mod07 folder in the LON-CL1 machine folder needs to be accessed from the LON-CL2 machine by using the share name, Share1. The folder contains certain documents that are modified regularly. These documents are the intellectual property of the company and vendors. Therefore, the folder share should be available to the client for a short period and needs to be removed after the required content is copied on LON-CL2. The E:\Labfiles\Mod06 folder in the LON-CL1 machine folder needs to be accessed from the LON-CL2 machine by using the share name, Share2. Ryan needs to use a centralized console and interface that can help in managing the shared folders. This interface should provide him quick access to all the shared folders of a machine along with details of shared folders, such as the number of client connections. The E:\Labfiles\Mod10 folder in the LON-CL1 machine needs to be accessed from the LON-CL2 machine by using the share name, Share3. This folder contains files that are required by another administrator for installing software. However, to create Share3 on LON-CL1, he needs to use the LON-DC1 server. To maintain a high-level security of the client's data on the LON-CL1 machine, physical access of the machine needs to be restricted. The share folder, Share 3, contains confidential data related to a technology vendor. As a result, this folder should be accessed only by the Administrator account on LON-CL2. How can Ryan perform this task? Experiment To accomplish the assigned task, Ryan needs to perform the following tasks: Share and access a folder using command line. Identify the number of client connections (of a shared folder) using Microsoft Management Console (MMC). Share and access a folder using MMC.
