34. Guests must communicate with the physical network through the Hyper-V host's network adapter. Which virtual switch type fits?
35. Help-desk staff should restart one approved service remotely without receiving full administrator capabilities. What should be evaluated?
36. Hybrid Windows Servers need supported cloud security posture and threat-protection integration. Which offering should be assessed?
37. Local administrator passwords must be unique per managed server and rotated automatically. Which feature should be assessed?
38. New clients fail to obtain leases while existing clients remain connected. What should the administrator inspect?
39. On-premises clients must resolve Azure private DNS names, and Azure workloads must resolve on-premises names. Which approach should be assessed?
