1 Install the OS

The first step is to install the Windows Server operating system on your hardware. You can choose from different editions and versions of Windows Server, depending on your requirements and budget. You can install the OS from a DVD, a USB drive, or a network location. You will need to provide a product key, accept the license terms, and select the installation type and the disk partition. You can also customize the language, time zone, and keyboard settings. After the installation is complete, you will need to set a password for the administrator account and log in to the server.

Insert the Installation Media: Insert the Windows Server installation media (such as a DVD or USB) into the server's disk drive or USB port. Access the Server's BIOS Settings: Power on the server and enter the server's BIOS settings. This is usually done by pressing a specific key (such as F2 or Del) during the boot process. The specific key may vary depending on the server's manufacturer. Configure Boot Order: In the BIOS settings, navigate to the "Boot" or "Boot Order" section. Here, you can configure the boot order to prioritize the installation media. Ensure that the installation media is set as the first boot option. Save and Exit BIOS Settings: Save the BIOS settings and exit.

2 Set up the network

The next step is to configure the network settings for your server. You will need to assign a static IP address, a subnet mask, a default gateway, and a DNS server for your server. You can do this from the Network and Sharing Center or from the PowerShell command line. You will also need to rename your server and join it to a domain or a workgroup, depending on your network structure. You can do this from the System Properties or from the PowerShell command line as well. You will need to restart your server after changing the network settings.

3 Add roles and features

The third step is to add the roles and features that you want your server to perform. Roles are the main functions of the server, such as file server, web server, or domain controller. Features are the additional capabilities that support the roles, such as backup, remote access, or PowerShell. You can add roles and features from the Server Manager or from the PowerShell command line. You will need to select the server that you want to configure, choose the roles and features that you want to install, and follow the wizard instructions. You may need to restart your server after installing some roles and features.

4 Secure the server

The fourth step is to secure your server from unauthorized access and malicious attacks. You will need to configure the firewall, the antivirus, and the encryption settings for your server. You can do this from the Windows Defender Firewall, the Windows Security Center, or the BitLocker Drive Encryption tools. You will need to create rules for allowing or blocking inbound and outbound traffic, scan and update your server for viruses and malware, and encrypt your disk drives and data. You will also need to apply the security best practices, such as using strong passwords, limiting user privileges, and enabling auditing and logging.

5 Manage the updates

The final step is to manage the updates for your server. Updates are essential for keeping your server secure, stable, and compatible with the latest technologies. You can manage the updates from the Windows Update or the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) tools. You will need to check for updates regularly, install the recommended and optional updates, and schedule the updates for a convenient time. You will also need to monitor the update status, troubleshoot any issues, and backup your server before and after the updates. You will need to restart your server after installing some updates.
