Why each option
To efficiently install Windows 7 on 100 computers using an existing image on a functional network, the technician should next set up Windows Deployment Services (WDS). WDS enables network-based operating system deployment.
Installing a DNS server is essential for network name resolution, but it is not the immediate next step for deploying OS images using an existing image.
A DHCP server assigns IP addresses, which is generally a prerequisite for a functional network, but it is not the direct tool for image deployment itself.
Windows Deployment Services (WDS) is Microsoft's technology specifically designed for deploying Windows operating system images over a network to multiple client computers. It leverages PXE boot to automate the installation process for a large number of machines.
Creating a Windows recovery image is used for system restoration, not for the initial deployment of an OS to new computers.
Concept tested: Windows OS image deployment, WDS
