nickh2308 Posted July 11, 2013 Report post Posted July 11, 2013 Hi all, I work in a school and I have set up SCCM 2012 to manage about 1000 computers. I am wondering what the best practice would be to manage Windows updates? If I set up the Software Update Point on SCCM, I noticed the SCCM client changes the update source on the computers to the WSUS server. Now when the students are on holidays and they are at home and not in our school network, does that mean they will not receive updates? Is there a way to configure the clients to download Windows Updates from Microsoft if the SUP cannot be reached or would it be better to configure group policy for the clients to download updates from Windows Update instead of using SCCM? Thanks, Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter van der Woude Posted July 11, 2013 Report post Posted July 11, 2013 That's only possible for Endpoint Protection Definition Updates. Otherwise you indeed have to start looking at things like Internet Clients, Direct Access, or GPO's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
