You started creating virtual machines in Chapter 3 , but we have shown almost nothing about configuring them. We wanted to ensure that you had the knowledge to create a fully functional Hyper-V infrastructure for your virtual machines before you got too far into setting them up. Now, we can introduce the finer points and nuances of virtual machine configuration. Whereas most of what you have seen so far counts as foundational knowledge, you will frequently use what you learn in this chapter. The information here extends beyond the options in the New Virtual Machine wizard.
