Configuring of DHCP Server on Windows Server 2019 Datacenter
To ensure the VM operates correctly, you need to open UDP ports 67 and 68 in the Security Group in the AWS Firewall.

- To connect to the virtual machine, click the Remote desktop file from step 10 of the Guidance on usage
- In the window that appears, enter the password from step 12 of the Guidance on usage and click OK.
- Check the box and click Yes.
- To run DHCP, click the DHCP shortcut on the desktop.
