Question 2
Exercise 2.2
Overview
Configuring WSUS
After you install WSUS, you must configure WSUS so that it retrieves updates from Microsoft or another WSUS server. You also need to configure WSUS on what updates need to be downloaded and when the downloads should occur. 20 minutes
Completion time
Mindset Question:
After the WSUS server has been installed, it needs to be configured so that it knows where to get the updates from and what to download. If you were getting updates from the Windows Update, what would you need to configure, similarly as you configure Internet Explorer to access the Microsoft Update website?
4.
Take a screen shot of the Complete WSUS dialog box by pressing Alt+Prt Scr and then paste it into your Lab02_worksheet file in the page provided by pressing Ctrl+V. [copy screen shot over this text]
After synchronizing from another WSUS server, what default port is used?
Question 3
17. Take a screen shot of the Update Services console by pressing Alt+Prt Scr and then paste it into your Lab02_worksheet file in the page provided by pressing Ctrl+V. [copy screen shot over this text]
Exercise 2.3
Overview
Configuring Clients
For a client to get updates from a WSUS, the client has to be configured to get updates from WSUS. Therefore, during this exercise, you use group policies to configure Server02 to get updates from Server01. 5 minutes
Completion time
Mindset Question:
You have hundreds of clients that need to get Windows updates. Rather than configure each computer one-by-one, what would be the easiest way to configure all of the computers so that the computers will get the Windows updates that you specify?
If you dont use group policies to configure clients to use WSUS, how would you configure the system?
Question 4
Exercise 2.4
Overview
Approving Updates
The WSUS server has been configured and you have a client that is ready to get updates from the WSUS server. During this exercise, you approve what updates need to be pushed. 5 minutes
Completion time
Mindset Question:
The WSUS server has been configured and the clients have been configured to get updates from the WSUS server. Before you approve updates, what should you do first?
1.
In Exercise 2.1, what are the two types of databaes that WSUS support?
2.
In Exercise 2.2, what two sources can a WSUS server get updates from?
3.
In Exercise 2.3, in WSUS, how do you specify which computers get updates?
4.
In Exercise 2.3, what is the easiest way to configure the clients to use a WSUS server?
5.
In Exercise 2.3, by default, what is the HTTP and what is the HTTPS URL for WSUS running on Server01. Hint: Look at the IIS Bindings for the WSUS Administration website in IIS.
