Summary

This chapter covered how to properly go through the process of ConfigMgr 1706 installation, which is not a hard task if you're well prepared. Main tasks included installing the operating system, MS SQL Server, and the rest of the prerequisites. Some configuration data also needs to be prepared, along with a few fundamental decisions that need to be made, which has been also covered in this chapter.

The next chapter covers configuring sites, boundaries, and boundary groups. Boundaries define networks for managed devices, while boundary groups are logical groups of boundaries. Proper configuration of these components is a cornerstone for successful installation and communication between server and clients.
