WSUS allows you to target updates to groups of client computers, so you can ensure that specific computers always get the right updates at the most convenient times. For example, if all the computers in one department (such as the Accounting team) have a specific configuration, you can set up a group for that team, decide which updates their computers need and what time they should be installed, and then use WSUS reports to evaluate the updates for the team.

Because computers can be assigned to multiple groups, it is possible for a single update to be approved more than once for the same computer. However, the update will be deployed only once, and any conflicts will be resolved by the WSUS server. To continue with the example above, if computerA is assigned to both the Payroll and the Accounts Payable groups, and Update1 is approved for both groups, it will be deployed only once.

You can assign computers to computer groups by using one of two methods, server-side targeting or client-side targeting. With server-side targeting, you manually move one or more client computers to one computer group at a time. With client-side targeting, you use Group Policy or edit the registry settings on client computers to enable those computers to automatically add themselves into the previously created computer groups. This process can be scripted and deployed to many computers at once. You must specify the targeting method you will use on the WSUS server by selecting one of the two options on the **computers** section of the **Options** page.

You can also use the Configuration Wizard from the **Options** page to configure or reconfigure your WSUS server at any time.

### Synchronizing Update by Product and Classification

A WSUS server downloads updates based on the products or product families (for example, Windows, or Windows Server 2008, Datacenter edition) and classifications (for example, critical updates or security updates) that you specify. at the first synchronization, the WSUS server downloads all of the updates available in the categories that you have specified. In subsequent synchronizations, your WSUS server downloads only the newest updates (or changes to the updates already available on your WSUS server) for the categories you have specified.

You can specify update products and classifications on the **Options** page under **Products and Classifications**. Products are listed in a hierarchy, grouped by product family. If you select Windows, you automatically select every product that falls under that product hierarchy. By selecting the parent check box you select all items under it, as well as all future versions. selecting the child check boxes will not select the parent check boxes. The default setting for products is all Windows products, and the default setting for classifications is critical and security updates.
