DRAG DROP
You manage a server named DA01 that has the DirectAccess feature configured. You deploy a new server
named DA02. Both servers run Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2.
You need to configure a Direct Access load-balanced cluster named WAP01 that contains servers DA01
and DA02.
How should you complete the relevant Windows PowerShell commands? To answer, drag the
appropriate Windows PowerShell segment to the correct locations. Each Windows PowerShell segment
may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or
scroll to view content.
Explanation:
Box 1: Add-WindowsFeature –Name DirectAccess-VPN, NLB
We set up DA01 for Directaccess-VPN and for Network load balancing.
Box 2: NLB
DA02 will be a node in the cluster so it needs NLB
Box 3: WAP01
Set up the cluster named WAP01.
Box 4: DA02
Box 5: DA01
DA02 is a node in the cluster, while DA01 is the DirectAccess server.
We add the DA02 server to the load balanced cluster as node. The Add-RemoteAccessLoadBalancerNode
cmdlet adds a server to the load balanced cluster. The server is added to the cluster to which the server
on which the cmdlet is run, or to the server specified in the ComputerName parameter.
The –RemoteAccessServerParameter specifies a remote access server which should be added to the
cluster. In this case DA01.
Add-RemoteAccessLoadBalancerNode

Answer is wrong.
In the exhibit a single network adapter topology is used.
Box 1: NLB (DirectAccess-VPN is already installed in DA01)
Box 2: DirectAccess-VPN, NLB
I’m not shure (I can’t test in a lab now) about Box 3 and Box 4 (ComputerName) that can be DA01 (or omitted)
-ComputerName
Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 address, or host name, of the server on which the cmdlet runs. If this parameter is specified, then the server is added to the load balanced cluster.
The computer name is not specified in examples
Set-RemoteAccessLoadBalancer –InternetDedicatedIPAddress @(“10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0″,”3ffe::2/64”) –InternetVirtualIPAddress @(“10.0.0.5/255.255.255.0”, “3ffe::5/64”) –PassThru
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh918430.aspx
The command creates the cluster and, in this way, no cluster name is specified (as you can do with the GUI). You have to define the WAP01 name later.
In this document https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134175(v=ws.11).aspx
the command is used with the computer name of the first node.
Set-RemoteAccessLoadBalancer -InternetDedicatedIPAddress @(‘10.244.4.19 /255.255.255.0’) -InternetVirtualIPAddress @(‘10.244.4.21 /255.255.255.0’) -ComputerName ‘DA1.domain1.corp.contoso.com’ -Verbose
Box 5: DA02
-RemoteAccessServer
Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 address, or name, of a server. The cmdlet adds the server to the load balanced cluster.
Example:
Add the Edge2 server as a new node in this load balanced cluster.
The cmdlet is run on Edge1 server and therefore the Edge2 server is added to the same cluster as the Edge1 server as shown in output of NlbNodeStatus.
Add-RemoteAccessLoadBalancerNode –RemoteAccessServer Edge2.corp.contoso.com –PassThru

Answer should be:
Box 1: NLB
Box 2: DirectAccess-VPN, NLB
Box 3: DA01
Box 4: DA01
Box 5: DA02
Looking at the same TechNet articles of the explanation and sdquirra, I get:
NLB
DirectAccess-VPN, NLB
DA01
WAP01
DA02
Box 3: Set-RemoteAccessLoadBalancer -ComputerName: -ComputerName
Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 address, or host name, of the server on which the cmdlet runs. If this parameter is specified, then the server is added to the load balanced cluster … this is the first node and is DA01
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh918430(v=wps.630).aspx
Box 4: Add-RemoteAccessLoadBalancerNode -ComputerName: -ComputerName
Specifies the IPv4or IPv6 address, or host name of the computer, on which the Remote Access server computer specific tasks should be run. If this parameter is specified, then it represents the cluster to which the server is added. Cluster is WAP01.
Box 5: Add-RemoteAccessLoadBalancerNode – RemoteAccessServer: -RemoteAccessServer
Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 address, or name, of a server. The cmdlet adds the server to the load balanced cluster. This is the 2nd node and is DA02
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh918413(v=wps.630)
Box 4: DA1
Add-RemoteAccessLoadBalancerNode -ComputerName
“Specifies the IPv4or IPv6 address, or host name of the computer, on which the Remote Access server computer specific tasks should be run. If this parameter is specified, then it represents the cluster to which the server is added.”
It specifically asks you to enter either an ipv4/ipv6 address or a computer hostname. It doesn’t tell you to fill in the clustername. The ipv4/ipv6/hostname you fill in will represent the entire cluster if it’s in one.
