Next is to assign the server a static IP address. With default settings, the server will automatically
obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. It is very important to assign a static IP address that
does not change. This is key when the server is sharing resources or running crucial roles such as
active directory domain services. If the IP address is continuously changing, it will cause
important issues to these services. To do so, you will open Network/Ethernet properties, then
open up IPV4 properties and assign a static IP address.
Windows Update:

It is essential to make sure the server is fully updated to avoid any issues that might have been
already patched by windows. Also changing the active hours in a strategic way can allow users to
work efficiently. User can also gain total control of the windows updates by setting them up to
manually install updates. To do this, open command prompt>sconfig>5>M and press OK. This
will prevent windows from downloading and installing updates automatically; however,
administrators will have to diligently check for latest updates.
