EXAM TIP
exam question writers love to write questions about GpOs because it's easy to write com-
pelling distractors (incorrect answer choices) for them. the interaction of GpOs with each
other and the specific Windows versions that the GpOs apply to are areas to focus on.
After the initial configuration of WSUS is complete, you can create WSUS groups to control
which update policies are applied to which computers. You need to create the groups in the
Windows Server Update Services console by selecting All Computers in the left pane and then
clicking Add Computer Group in the Actions pane (see Figure 1-8).

The Add Computer Group dialog box
You can add computers to an existing group in the Update Services console or by using
the Add-WsusComputer cmdlet.
The typical WSUS server uses server-side targeting with computers assigned to WSUS groups
on the server. New computers are automatically assigned to the Unassigned Computers
group until they are assigned to a group. This process works for small to mid-sized organiza-
tions, but it doesn't scale well in larger organizations. You can configure WSUS to use Group
Policy to assign computers to WSUS groups by enabling client-side targeting.
