Completed

In this module, you learned about cmdlets used to configure settings related to Group Policy, Server Manager, Hyper-V, and Internet Information Services (IIS). The following are the key takeaways:

• The Group Policy management cmdlets that are part of the GroupPolicy module can automate the management of most tasks involving Group Policy Objects (GPOs), including creating, deleting, backing up, reporting, and importing GPOs. Their names include the prefix GP while most have GPO as the noun.
