WSUS Replication Options

Topic

New Reply

I have a unique requirement to setup WSUS at 3 levels.

Level-1- WSUS server will manage and deploy the patches to all the endpoints and this server should get the patches from Level-2 server

Leve-2 – This server should get the patches from Lelvel-3 server

Level-3 – This server will get the patches from the Internet and we will have a manual approval process. Only the tested patches will be approved and downloaded on this server.

Is there anyway to implement this?

Multiple WSUS servers
Administrators can deploy multiple servers running WSUS that synchronize all content within their organization’s intranet. You might expose only one server to the Internet, which would be the only server that downloads updates from Microsoft Update. This server is set up as the upstream server the source to which the downstream servers synchronize. When applicable, servers can be located throughout a geographically dispersed network to provide the best connectivity to all client computers.

I’m sure you can search for the details.

cheers, Paul
