of server. Continue by discussing capacity planning guidelines for each
server. Next, discuss the planning considerations that are associated with
mailbox servers and public folder servers. Complete the module by
explaining how to plan storage needs and partition databases.

Windows® 2000....
This module provides students with the information necessary to design a
Microsoft® Exchange 2000 public folder strategy that meets a company’s
business requirements.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Identify the functions of public folders; determine how to use, organize, and
display public folders within an Exchange 2000 organization; and evaluate
the effect of public folders on an Exchange 2000 design.
This module provides students with the knowledge required to design a routing
topology for a Microsoft® Exchange 2000 organization in an enterprise
environment.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Analyze the existing business environment and network infrastructure.
Plan routing groups.
Plan routing group boundaries.
Plan message flow.
Plan connectors between routing groups.
This module provides students with the information necessary to design a
Microsoft® Exchange 2000 administrative plan that meets a company’s
business requirements.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Describe the administrative models commonly used to manage
Exchange 2000, and explain how various factors and features affect the
design of an administrative plan.
Create administrative groups that can be used to manage administrative
tasks and responsibilities.
The Soneplex 220 HDSL (HLX220) module operates with ADC's
Soneplex HDSL Remote module to provide full duplex DS1
transport over two unconditioned, non-loaded copper loops up to
12,000ft. An HDSL Repeater doubles the distance up to 24,000ft.
Designed for plug-in compatibility with central office-based 220-
type repeater shelves, the HLX220 provides fast, simple and
economical HDSL transmission in new or existing installations.
The Soneplex Quad Loop Extender (QLX) module
converts four multiplexed, DS1 signals into an
optical DS2 for delivery over singlemode optical
fibers. The optical DS2 is converted back to four
DS1s at the customer premises. It supports op-
tional 1+1 protection and provides extensive alarms
and diagnostic capabilities.
HDSL technology has proven to be highly reliable and has played a major role in easing
many time and cost issues associated with T1 line provisioning and installation. For
example, an HDSL T1 solution can reach 12,000 feet. For the same distance, the old
repeatered T1 method would require labor-intensive installation of a repeater module
every 3,000 feet.
The Soneplex® management access point (MAP) chassis
dapts and concentrates telemetry byte oriented serial
TBOS) alarm and control signals into simplified network
management protocol (SNMP) messages. Equipment
ormerly monitored by TBOS can now be added to SNMP
management systems used by other data or transmission
products, eliminating the TBOS overlay network. The MAP
nables centralized end-to-end circuit visibility, reduces
overall costs of the management network and provides a
unified SNMP presentation to the operations personnel....
The Soneplex T1 Intelligent Office Repeater (RLXIOR)
module extends a single DS1 up to 3,000 feet, and can be
optioned as either an automatic span power repeater or a
long haul DS1 interface to a DSX. The RLXIOR supports
intelligent loopbacks and span powers intelligent repeater
modules and network interface devices.
The Soneplex 220 HDSL Single-Position Chassis provides
simple and cost-effective housing and cable interconnec-
tions for installation of a single ADC Soneplex 220 HDSL
(HLX220) plug-compatible module. The compact chassis
is ideal for use in small central offices, controlled environ-
ment vaults or locations where space is limited and -48
VDC power is available.
he Soneplex
Streaker (STK) module is an optional,
low-cost maintenance module used to verify local
wiring in a central office environment from the main
distribution frame (MDF) to a Soneplex Broadband
or Loop Extender System or from the Soneplex Loop
Extender System to a DSX panel

The Soneplex
Extender Card is an optional main-

access and DS1 monitoring access when used with
ADC's standard T1 Repeater (RLX) or HDSL
Central Office Module (HLXC) in the Soneplex
Loop Extender or Soneplex
Broadband Chassis.
The Soneplex
Test Access Unit (TAU) module is an optional
maintenance device that provides monitor and intrusive test
access to the DS1 channels in the Soneplex Broadband chassis
between the high speed network interface modules and the
low speed DS1 distribution modules.
Module Strategy
Use the following strategy to present this module:
!" Reviewing Active Directory Basics
This topic provides a review of fundamental concepts in Active Directory.
Begin by discussing the role of Active Directory in an enterprise
environment. Continue by discussing the Active Directory schema,
domains, the global catalog, and the site topology of Active Directory.
