Honolulu should be able to manage DNS settings.

DNS extension should use numerical sorting for IP addresses instead of alphanumeric. For a long list of records, this is really confusing.

Add Management tools for Installed Roles/Features of Managed Servers in Project Honolulu. (e.g. Active Directory Users and Computers if Managing a Domain Controller)

So far, only IP address is exposed there, more settings would be very welcome.
Including - but not limited to - Network Location, DNS Suffix, etc.

The DNS extension works pretty good, but apparently it needs the user to have permissions to connect to the server.
I guess in multiple organizations, DNS permissions have been delegated so admins can work do stuff, without needing actual DA permissions.

I thought it couldn't get worse than MMC but it did.

Do not show the tools if it does not apply to the particular server.

When a Domain Controller is not hyper-v host, I do not want to see tools like Virtual Machines and Virtual Switches.

I would only like to see the tools that apply to the server, tools that belong to the installed roles and features. On a Domain Controller managment tools such as ADDS, DNS DHCP and a file server DFS and File and Resource management.

Great would be if you can define multiple OUs to connect to, where the computer objects are situated. So not only an import more like a synchronisation, so that if there are new computers added the list is up to date. And a folder browsing that reflects the OUs with some additional views like "All Connections", "Favorite Connections" and "Recent Connections".

Affected build: Windows Admin Center 2012 Preview Build 1.3.2012.11003
Plugin name: Networks
plugin version: 1.95.0
severity:
reproducible: x out of 5
easy to fix: -

https://.../servermanager/connections/server/.../tools/network/name/Ethernet/settings/form/ipv4

allow configuration of (equivalent to the GUI)

• more than 2 DNS servers / DNS order (hashtable)


• allow to configure DNS suffixes


• allow to configure a fixed IP without specifying DNS (or DNS via DHCP) - usecase cluster networks

Please look at being able to enumerate more DNS records on Active Directory DNS server.

I.E. Shutdown or reboot on:
- a GP server when there is no secondary server available to failover to, or dns does not point to multiple servers
- hyper-v server with running guests

or just a list of the roles if this information is unavailable

Allow creation and editing of TXT records from the DNS extension for WAC

The default DNS it is horizontal column up and down but if it has vertical or multi column support it would be a good idea for IT admin

Local users and groups management should allow adding user by their UPN logon name - Currently seems to require pre-Windows 2000 DOMAIN\username

WAC 1910; changing network adapter DNS deletes A records (even static ones) and does not recreate. Primary and Secondary DNS servers get changed even though an error is thrown in WAC "Couldn't update IPv4 network settings..."

I know this is a bit of a stretch but being able to support some other DNS/DHCP solutions would be amazing. Perhaps this would be more of an avenue for an IPAM solution to add an extension.

WAC should be able to manage Server Roles and features. Like DNS, DHCP etc.

Add Network Monitoring capabilities within Windows Admin center that would display:
- per process breakdown of network send/receive activity w/ PID
- active TCP connections with local & remote port
- remote connection address/resolve to dns
This would be incredibly useful on server core installations where resource monitor is not available.
