Describe vSpere web client
Primary method of interaction with the virtual environment. Its used to connect to vCenter Server systems and manage inventory objects
Goal of AOC comm support
Goal is to ensure efferent flow of information into, through , and out of the AOC while ensuring the integrity and security of that information
Role of the CFP function
The CFP is the senior communications management function for the AOC and is a support staff for the ACOMS/CC. It consists of personnel who have a specific working knowledge of the AOC mission, oversees site operations, and provides direct C2 communications support to the AOC
Explain the purpose of C2
To ensure servers, workstations, peripherals, communications devices, and software is online and available to the user
Explain the primary responsibility of data links
To help the ICO and ACOMS/CC plan, coordinate, establish, and maintain the multi tactical link network
Plans and programs purpose
Support the ACOMS/CC through monitoring the AOC baseline and tracking the fielding of new capabilities and applications
AOC as a Unit
Gives the commander , the Air Forces COMAFOR the ability to command and control C2 air operations. The AOC is the major C2 node and primary hub of the theater Air Control System
AOC as a Weapon System
Designated the AN/USQ-163 Falconer which includes equipment and interfaces to other C2 centers and systems to ensure AOC personnel effectively conduct air and space operations
3 groups of teams that make up AOC structure
Functional core teams
Speciality teams
Support Teams
Purpose of ATO
Plan written in US message text format that task AirPower in support of joint air operations for a specific time period, normally 24 hours
Web based apps used for planning , re-planning, and ATO distribution
MCAMP is a TBMCS web based application used for air battle planning, replanning , and ATO dissemination

CFP primary responsibility
Act as a single focal point that ensures user communication and system issues or problems are addressed and resolved
Purpose of Netlogon service
Windows process that authenticates users, devices , and other services on a domain
Purpose of drive mapping
Associating a local drive letter to a folder that is shared by another computer so that it can be accessed as if it is a local drive
Purpose of drive mapping
Associating a local drive letter to a folder that is shared by another computer so that it can be accessed as if it is a local drive
Identify commonly misconfigured TCP/IP properties
incorrect IP
Incorrect subnet mask
Incorrect Default Gateway
Must also point to the correct DNS
Describe Citrix
A virtual desktop is an emulation of a hardware device that runs on a physical or virtual computer
Authenticators for client systems logon and access to webase applications
Controlled by web logic and Active Directory . User must belong to web application groups in AD
Purpose of Remote Desktop services
To display remote computers desktop when required
Remote Desktop connections command
MSTSC.exe
Purpose of AD
Provided a structured and centrally controllable computing environment within the AOC
Describe domain controllers
The DC stored directory information, provides directory services, and authenticates users and computers
Describe security groups
Provide an efficent way to assign permissions to shared resources on your network
Purpose of AD group policy
To apply policy settings to computers and uses in an Active Directory domain
Purpose of AD replication
Define the way updates are communicated between DC
The service AD must use for name resolution
DNS is a name resolution and location service used to resolve computer names to addresses for connectivity purposes
Purpose of dcdiag
Tool used to analyze the state of domain controllers in a forest or enterprise and reports any problems to assist with troubleshooting. It is a very effective tool for verifying the health of AD
Which modes is needed when Active Directory is damaged that sys admin can’t log on
Directory service restore mode is used to logon to a DC ..
