Windows Admin Center and Enterprise CA

Windows Admin Center and Enterprise CA

Sample LabConfig for Windows Server 2019

$LabConfig = @{ DomainAdminName='LabAdmin'; AdminPassword='LS1setup!'; Prefix = 'WSLab-'; SwitchName = 'LabSwitch'; DCEdition='4'; Internet=$True; AdditionalNetworksConfig=@(); VMs=@() }

## Without Certs Machines
# Win10 Client Node
$LabConfig.VMs += @{ VMName = 'Win10' ; ParentVHD = 'Win1019H1_G2.vhdx'   ; MemoryStartupBytes = 2GB; MemoryMinimumBytes = 1GB; AddToolsVHD = $True ; DisableWCF=$True ; MGMTNICs=1}
# Single Gateway (NoCert from CA)
$LabConfig.VMs += @{ VMName = 'WACGW' ; ParentVHD = 'Win2019Core_G2.vhdx'; MGMTNICs=1}

## Machines for Cert scenario

# Certification Authority
$LabConfig.VMs += @{ VMName = 'CA' ; ParentVHD = 'Win2019Core_G2.vhdx'; MGMTNICs=1}
# Single Gateway
$LabConfig.VMs += @{ VMName = 'WACGWCert' ; ParentVHD = 'Win2019Core_G2.vhdx'; MGMTNICs=1}

Desktop mode installation on Windows 10

Note: All commands below should be executed from the Win10 virtual machine that runs Windows 10.

$ProgressPreference='SilentlyContinue' #for faster download
#Download Windows Admin Center to downloads
    Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing -Uri https://aka.ms/WACDownload -OutFile "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\WindowsAdminCenter.msi"

#Install Windows Admin Center (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/manage/windows-admin-center/deploy/install)

#Open Windows Admin Center

GW mode installation with Self-Signed cert

Note: All commands below should be executed from the DC virtual machine

This just a quick way to setup WAC in GW mode for testing

Server Scenarios with Certs prerequisites

Install prerequisites on Win10 or DC machine

Run following code from Win10 machine or from DC

First, we will install RSAT (it's necessary to work with servers remotely).

#Detect if code is running on server or Win10 and install necessary features
$WindowsInstallationType=Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\' -Name InstallationType
if ($WindowsInstallationType -eq "Server"){
    Install-WindowsFeature -Name "RSAT-ADDS","RSAT-AD-PowerShell","RSAT-ADCS","RSAT-Clustering","RSAT-Hyper-V-Tools"
}elseif ($WindowsInstallationType -eq "Client"){
    $Capabilities="Rsat.ServerManager.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0","Rsat.NetworkController.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0","Rsat.FailoverCluster.Management.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0","Rsat.CertificateServices.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0","Rsat.ActiveDirectory.DS-LDS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0"
    foreach ($Capability in $Capabilities){
        Add-WindowsCapability -Name $Capability -Online
    }
}

Install and configure ADCS on the CA Server

Certification Authority would be used to issue signed certificates for the Windows Admin Center instances.

On CA install ADCS role, and after role installation we will create custom Computer2019 template. The CA install does not follow all best practices. For more details visit Certification Authority WSLab Scenario.

Generate a certificate

In order to use own certificate instead of default self-signed one, certificate needs to be generated before actually installing Windows Admin Center and certificate needs to be imported in Computer store of that machine. Let's do it using Autoenrollment.

$GatewayServerName="WACGWCert"
$TemplateName = "WACGW"

# Install PSPKI module for managing Certification Authority
Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -Force
Install-Module -Name PSPKI -Force
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope Process -Force
Import-Module PSPKI

#Set Cert Template permission
Get-CertificateTemplate -Name $TemplateName | Get-CertificateTemplateAcl | Add-CertificateTemplateAcl -User "$GatewayServerName$" -AccessType Allow -AccessMask Read, Enroll,AutoEnroll | Set-CertificateTemplateAcl

#Configure AutoEnrollment policy and enroll cert on WACGW
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $GatewayServerName -ScriptBlock {
    Set-CertificateAutoEnrollmentPolicy -StoreName MY -PolicyState Enabled -ExpirationPercentage 10 -EnableTemplateCheck -EnableMyStoreManagement -context Machine
    certutil -pulse
}

Note: If you don't want to download installer over the Internet, copy MSI file over to virtual machine manually.

Run Windows Admin Center

After the installation on WACGW Windows Admin Center's network service is started automatically. In order to access it you need to just open the web browser from the Win10 virtual machine, navigate to http://WACGW.corp.contoso.com/ and you can log in to the Windows Admin Center.
