  1. Disabling the firewall
  2. Locking the server in a access-controlled rack/room

FAQ

CompTIA Server+ — Frequently Asked

Does CompTIA Server+ expire?

Server+ is a good-for-life certification in its current form for many holders, though CompTIA periodically updates the exam version — always confirm the current policy when you certify.

Do I need Server+ if I have A+?

A+ is a recommended foundation, but Server+ goes deeper into server hardware, administration, security, and disaster recovery — ideal for data center and infrastructure roles.
