Course Description

Welcome to the best Windows Server Update Services course where you will learn how to deploy and administrate a Windows Server Update Services Server from the ground up.

By the end of this course you will be able to create a WSUS lab (including a Windows Domain), install and configure WSUS, configured WSUS clients, approved and managed domain updates, administrate WSUS in disconnected / secure environments, troubleshoot WSUS and MUCH more!

I will be taking you step-by-step through each of the sections in this course so all your questions about WSUS will be answered!

The following topics are covered in this course:

  • Learn Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) Administration from Basic to Advanced

El curso esta bastante bien para aquellos que no hemos usado nunca un servidor de WSUS. Cuenta un poco lo básico para comenzar en la aventura de las actualizaciones (configurar servidores, trabajar con updates, etc...) Si tienes algo de experiencia con WSUS, quizá se te quede corto, peor si vienes de cero (como yo), el curso es ideal.

By Achituni Kalyan on 5/12/2021

it is good one, long back in 2010, I implemented the offline WSUS for DMZ site. I was interested to know what all changed. nothing much changes. Well.. I am not the right person to suggest. but, if you would inform the user rights and user privilege to install and configure the WSUS, that would really help lot. as you aware Microsoft says “Log on to the server on which you plan to install the WSUS server role by using an account that is a member of the Local Administrators group”. but we use the SA-Account which have domain admin/localAdmin right on all the systems. One more point, WSUS Admin Groups and ReadOnly Groups creation. most of the time, we use the "Enable Client-Side targeting" group policy, would have explained. what about, if we have two WSUS servers (one primary and secondary) i m not talking about downstream server? how do you configure the group policy? Tell me plz..

Love it!

Some information on optimizing the database after a synchronoization probably would have helped, but I'm not testing this on a server, just a laptop with 8GB of RAM. I got through it though. Thank you for making this course!

Instructor Paul goes over WSUS and Describes most scenarios you might run into in your environment and also touches on troubleshooting and advanced administration. Great for those starting off with WSUS or those that need a refresher course.

Apesar do contedo simples o instrutor fala muito rpido, embora eu consiga entender a maior parte dificultou um pouco...se tratando de um curso em ingls mesmo assim foi possvel entender tudo.
