Previously we implemented a new server to act as the Active Directory Domain Controller for our farm.  Before it can do that we need to configure the network settings within the DC, setup DNS and then configure Active Directory.  To accomplish this I will be configuring the domain controller network to prepare it for handling the active directory needs of our environment.

The next step in our journey to an Azure SharePoint 2019 environment is to build Active Directory. You actually have a couple of options here in that you could integrate directly with Azure Active Directory or you can build a domain controller and create your active directory that way.  Because my end state for this environment is to actually build a hybrid environment I want to build a full domain controller.  This means we are going to provision a VM, install Windows Server 2016 and create an active directory.
