The Windows 10 Fall Update/1511 (and Windows Server 2016 TP4) includes new functionality in Hyper-V that supports native network address translation (NAT). This functionality wasn’t previously available in Hyper-V without setting up Internet sharing within the OS or running an intermediary VM as a gateway. In this article, I’ll show you how to set up NAT in Windows 10 Hyper-V using the new NAT virtual switch.

One of the first things I do after I set up a new domain is change the default Active Directory password policy. If you didn’t do this, you have a security problem. In addition, you are wasting your organization’s money.
