WSUS provides basic update management functionality, but does not provide advanced func-
tionality such as maintenance windows, configuration baselines, support for Network Access
Protection, and support for Wake On LAN. You can integrate WSUS with System Center 2012
R2 Configuration Manager to provide advanced software update management functionality
for computers in your private cloud environment. When you integrate WSUS with Configu-
ration Manager, you perform update management tasks using the Configuration Manager
console.

on another computer, perform the following steps:
