Correct arrangement

  • Configuration
  • DependsOn
  • WindowsFeature

Explanation

The DSC script structure requires 'Configuration' as the top-level keyword that defines the entire DSC block, 'WindowsFeature' as the DSC resource type used to install IIS (a Windows Server role/feature), and 'DependsOn' to establish dependencies between resources ensuring proper installation order. 'Configuration' is the mandatory DSC script wrapper, 'WindowsFeature' is the correct resource for installing IIS via its feature name 'Web-Server', and 'DependsOn' links resources so dependent components wait for prerequisites to be installed first.
