2Fdpsccm_t_setting_up_pxe_serv_pt.html

The PXE service point is a site system role that initiates operating system deployments from computers whose network interface card is configured to allow PXE boot requests.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680668.aspx
You can use the PXE protocol to initiate operating system deployments to Configuration Manager 2007 client computers. Configuration Manager 2007 uses the PXE service point site role to initiate the operating system deployment process. The PXE service point must be configured to respond to PXE boot requests made by Configuration Manager 2007 clients on the network and then interact with Configuration Manager 2007 infrastructure to determine the appropriate deployment actions to take. You must assign the PXE service point site role to a server supported by Configuration Manager 2007 operating system deployment. The service site can be a primary or secondary site server.

About Distribution Points
Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 uses distribution points to store files needed for packages to run on client computers. These distribution points function as distribution centers for the files that a package uses, allowing users to download and run these files, programs, and scripts when a
package is advertised.

How to Configure the State Migration Point
The state migration point is a Configuration Manager 2007 site role that provides a location to store user state information before an operating system deployment. You can store the user stateon the state migration point while the operating system deployment proceeds and then restore the user state to the new computer from the state migration point. Each state migration point site server can only be a member of
one Configuration Manager 2007 site.

Question 3

Single choice

You have a System Center Configuration Manager 2007 environment. Network Access Protection (NAP) is configured for your environment. You need to ensure that options for remediation are available to users when remediation fails. You create a Web site in the restricted network.

What should you do next?

A.

Configure the Troubleshooting URL setting on the network policy for non-compliant computers.

B.

Configure the Troubleshooting URL setting on the network policy for unknown computers.

C.

Create a collection of NAP-enabled systems, and create a collection variable named NAPURL Enter your Web sites URL as the variable value.

D.

Deploy a task sequence to all client computers that launches your Web sites URL

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Explanation:

Answer:Configure the Troubleshooting URL setting on the network policy for non-compliant computers.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680466.aspx
Although remediation with Network Access
Protection (NAP) in Configuration Manager 2007 is designed tohappen automatically, you should plan the user experience so that you provide troubleshooting informationspecific to your users if remediation fails.
This could include basic information about why there is a delay inaccessing the network and a Help Desk number to call. Or it could include links to help diagnose and resolvethe issue outside Configuration Manager. Providing user help is particularly important if your Network PolicyServer restricts non-compliant computers and remediation fails.

Remediation can fail for a number of reasons, including the following: The computer does not have the Configuration Manager client installed. The client cannot contact its management point (for example, there is a network problem). Content is not available (for example, thesoftwareupdate package has been deleted or there are networkproblems between the client and distribution points). Each network policy that enforces compliance on the restricted network can specify a troubleshooting URL,which directs users to a local Web site that is accessible on the restricted network. If it contains links toresources, these must also be accessible from that restricted network. You must provide the local Web site andbuild your own customized page using basic HTML.

To specify the Troubleshooting URL, follow this procedure: On the Network Policy Server, edit the network policy for non-compliant computers. Click the Settings tab, and then click NAP Enforcement under the section Network Access Protection. Click Configure in the section Remediation Server Groups and Troubleshooting URL. In the Troubleshooting URL section, type in the link to a Web page accessible from the restricted networkyou want users to see when they are in remediation. Click OK to closethe Remediation Servers and Troubleshooting URL dialog box, and then click OK to closethe network policy properties.

Edit SMS_Def.MOF on each site to query for the registry values.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/
bb632916.aspx About Collecting Hardware Inventory
The hardware inventory feature collects data from client computers by querying several data stores on clientcomputers, such as the registry and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) namespace classes. Thehardware inventory client agent does not query for all possible WMI classes, but it does provide the ability toreport on approximately 1,500 hardware properties from almost 100 different WMI classes by default.
The initial client hardware inventory collected by the hardware inventory client agent is a full inventorycollection based on the reporting requirements specified in the site's SMS_def.mof file stored on the primarysite server. The initial full inventory establishes a baseline for future inventory collections.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb632896.aspx
About MOF Files Used by Hardware Inventory
The SMS_def.mof file defines the reporting classes used by the hardware inventory client agent to determinewhether or not specific client data class information is reported. Reporting classes are based on the WMIrepository data classes, and attributes of those classes, existing on clients by default or added to them bycustomizing the Configuration.mof file. Reporting class information in the SMS_def.mof file is converted into a reporting policy provided to clientsduring their normal computer policy polling interval.
After the client compiles the new reporting policy, thereporting policy information is stored in the client system WMI repository in the InventoryDataItem class of theRoot\CCM\Policy\Machine WMI namespace.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc723575.aspx
Appendix C - Hardware Inventory Classes
The SMS_def.mof file controls the objects and properties that SMS includes in hardware inventory. You cancustomize the hardware inventory by editing the SMS_def.mof in the MOF Manager tool. The SMS_def.mof file controls which hardware inventory objects and properties SMS collects during hardwareinventory.

Configure the WSUS server to be a ConfigMgr software update point. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb633194.aspx How to Install Configuration Manager Clients Using Software Update Point Based Installation

Software update point based client installation publishes the Configuration Manager 2007 client to a softwareupdate point, as an additional software update. This method of client installation can be used to install theConfiguration Manager 2007 client on computers that do not already have the client installed, or to upgradeexisting Configuration Manager 2007 clients. If a computer is an existing Configuration Manager 2007 client, its Configuration Manager client policy providesthe software update point server name and port from which to obtain software updates. If you have not extended the Active Directory schema, you can use Windows Group Policy to provision clientinstallation settings to computers in your site. These settings will automatically be applied to any softwareupdate point based client installations.
