• Launch the VM with Hyper V installed.
• Create a new Virtual Network Adapter for the guest virtual machine and configure a NAT Gateway to enable internet connectivity
• Open Powershell as Administrator
• Create a New Internal Switch New-VMSwitch -Name "InternalNAT" -SwitchType Internal
  
• View the Properties of the switch and note the ifindex
  
• Create an IP Address for the NAT Gateway New-NetIPAddress -IPAddress 192.168.0.1 -PrefixLength 24 -InterfaceIndex 13
  
• Create a NAT Network New-NetNAT -Name "InternalNAT" -InternalIPInterfaceAddressPrefix 192.168.0.0/24
  
• Configure DHCP Server to Dynamically assign IP addresses to guest Virtual Machines
• Add Roles and Features from Server Manager and Select DHCP Server and continue the steps to install DHCP Server
