In my previous post Home Lab Step-by-Step Part-4-virtual router, we configured complete underlay networking for our Nested SDDC, We will do BGP configuration once we advance thru the lab.
As now we have Compute, Storage and Network ready, we need the infrastructure services, such as DNS, Active Directory and NTP.
We need to install one windows server which will serve as an active directory, DNS and iSCSi server for our setup.
In order to install the windows server, we would need windows server ISO. Now we will start installation of the server.
We will login to the ESXi server we installed, https://youresxiIP and use "root" credentials for login.
We will use the same steps as we used in deploying CSR1000v in our previous post and we will deploy it on the management network. We will use below mentioned IPs for our servers.
