WSUS design "nntp.aioe.org" <x[ at ]nntp.aioe.org> 7/6/2007 9:41:36 PM Working on a WSUS 3 deployment from scratch. I've got 4 WSUS servers in several different locations. Lets name the locations US, JAPAN, France, and Canada. Is it possible to have the US WSUS server act as a master configuration server so that it pushes down all of the configuration settings, approvals, etc... to all the other 3 servers, but have the other 3 server pull their content directly from Microsoft? I guess in essence what I am asking is it possible to have a mixed mode deployment?

Yes.
