Microsoft Windows Server Update Services 3.0 SP2 (WSUS 3.0 SP2) enables information technology administrators to deploy the latest Microsoft updates, hotfixes and service packs to computers running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Windows Vista family, Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2 operating systems. By using WSUS, administrators can fully manage and take control of the distribution of updates that are released through Microsoft Update. Prerequisites for WSUS server Windows Server 2003 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 or later Windows Installer 3.1 or later Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Microsoft Report Viewer Redistributable 2005 Microsoft Management Console 3.0 SQL Server 2005 SP1 or later Prerequisites for WSUS clients (x86 and x64) Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista, Windows 7 Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008 WSUS Deployment Scenarios WSUS is flexible enough to deploy starting from small to enterprise organisation. just you need to make sure active directory, DNS and DHCP working perfect. If port 80 is occupied by your company web site you can use port 8530. I used port 8530 on WSUS server. I have ISA 2004 so I will show how to add WSUS publishing rule in ISA 2004 also.

Important! Do NOT link WSUS policy in child OU. Link directly to the top of OU hierarchy otherwise workstation will not populate.
Publish WSUS policy in ISA Server

If you have ISA 2004/2006 or Forefront TMG 2010, you have to set WSUS policy in ISA firewall access rule. so that ISA doesnt block communication between server and client. You dont need to do it if nothing blocking between Client and Server communication and dont have a firewall. To publish WSUS policy, Open ISA management console Go to Network Object and expand WEB listener, right click on web listener click new. Type Name of WSUS server. Name should be netbios name of WSUS server. Follow the screen shot.

uncheck verify and block option. Apply Changes and click ok. Troubleshooting Go to client machine, run gpupdate /force if client not showing on WSUS Run wuauclt /resetauthorization /detectnow command from client machine. Check Registry of client.
Conclusion Auto update and patch up gives administrator more time to concentrate other things without spending time on patching up servers and pc. I enjoyed deploying WSUS. I hope these instruction would be handy for you. Relevant Articles:
