employees in two offices. The main office in Atlanta has 500 users and the branch office in Seattle
has 200 users.
Existing Environment
Existing Active Directory Environment
The network consists of a single Active Directory domain named RedbridgeAssociates.com.
Each office is configured as a separate Active Directory site.
All users in both offices have desktop computers that run Windows XP Professional. 100 users in
the New York office also have laptop computers that run Windows XP Professional.
All servers in the New York office run Windows Server 2012. The company has recently deployed
a Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager (Configuration Manager) infrastructure to
be used for the deployment of Operating Systems, application updates and Windows Updates in

and a Primary Site Server.
Network Infrastructure
The two offices are connected by a high latency unreliable WAN link. Each office has a reliable
Internet connection.
Planned Changes
The company plans to deploy a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) in the New York office. All
laptop users in the New York office will have their desktop computers replaced by virtual desktops.
The remaining desktop computers in the New York office will be replaced with new hardware.
20 new desktop computers will be purchased and deployed to the Seattle office.
Windows 8 will be deployed to the new desktop computers and the virtual desktops.
All company users use a line-of-business application named CorpApp. The application is installed
on every client computer.
A server running Windows Software Updates Services will be deployed to download updates from
Microsoft.
Remote Desktop Servers
Servers running the following roles will be deployed to the New York Office to provide the Virtual
Desktop Infrastructure (VDI):
Remote Desktop Virtualization Host (RD Virtualization Host)
Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway)
Remote Desktop Web Access (RD Web Access)
Remote Desktop Connection Broker (RD Connection Broker)
Business Requirements
The company has identified the following business requirements:
Laptop users must be able to connect to the virtual desktops from outside the network without
needing to use a VPN connection.
The virtual desktops require hardware acceleration to be enabled to run the CorpApp
application.

Windows Updates in the New York office.
Laptop users must be able to access the same Documents folder from the laptop and the virtual
desktop.
Laptop users must be able to configure different user settings on their virtual desktop and laptop
computers.
User settings must persist between virtual desktop sessions.
Windows Updates must be applied automatically to the virtual desktops.
All virtual desktops must be created from the same virtual machine image template.
User settings and data must not be saved on the virtual desktops.
Operating System deployment for the new computers in the Seattle office must not use the WAN link.
Security Requirements
The company has identified the following security requirements:
