The following questions are intended to reinforce key information presented in this lesson. If you are unable to answer a question, review the lesson materials and try the question again. You can find answers to the questions in the Questions and Answers section at the end of this chapter. 1. You are configuring a WSUS infrastructure. One server is synchronizing metadata and content from Microsoft Update. Other servers (one in each site) are synchronizing content from the upstream WSUS server. Which of the following steps is required to complete the WSUS infrastructure a. Configure Automatic Updates clients using Control Panel on each system. b. Configure GPOs to direct clients to the WSUS server in their sites. c. Configure a manual content distribution point. d. Approve updates using the WSUS administration page.

2. You are configuring WSUS for a group of Web servers. You want the Web servers to update themselves nightly based on a list of approved updates on your WSUS server. However, once in a while an administrator is logged on, performing latenight maintenance on a Web server, and you do not want update installation and potential restart to interfere with those tasks. What Windows Update policy configuration should you use in this scenario a. Notify For Download And Notify For Install b. Auto Download And Notify For Install c. Auto Download And Schedule The Install 3. You want all network clients to download and install updates automatically during night hours, and you have configured scheduled installation behavior for Automatic Updates. However, you discover that some users are turning off their machines at night, and updates are not being applied. Which policy allows you to correct this situation without changing the installation schedule a. Specify Intranet Microsoft Update Service Location b. No Auto-Restart For Scheduled Automatic Updates Installations c. Reschedule Automatic Updates Scheduled Installations d. Configure Automatic Update

WSUS is an intranet application that runs on IIS 6.0 and is administered through a Web-based administration site: http://WSUS_Servername/WSUSAdmin. The WSUS server synchronizes content for subscribed product types and update classifications and allows an administrator to configure approval centrally for each update. Typically, an enterprise configures WSUS to download the actual update installation files as well. Updates can be targeted to specific computers by defining computer groups on the WSUS servers. The membership of those groups can be managed on the server or by using client-side registry entries or Group Policy settings. Automatic Updates, which runs on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003, is responsible for downloading and installing updates on the client. Group Policy can be used to configure Automatic Updates to retrieve patches from a WSUS server rather than from the Windows Update servers. GPOs can also drive the download, installation, and restart behavior of the client computers.

Microsoft releases service packs to consolidate critical updates, security rollups, hotfixes, driver updates, and feature enhancements. As suggested at the beginning of this chapter, it is no longer feasible to wait until Service Pack 3 before installing Service Pack 2. You must stay current with service packs to maintain the security and integrity of your enterprise network. WSUS, discussed in the previous lesson, is capable of distributing service packs, but SUS is not. In environments where service packs are not deployed using an update infrastructure, you need to implement the skills covered in this lesson, which will allow you to deploy service packs by means of Group Policy.
