Summary

As Because the SBC 1k/2k ASM employs Microsoft's Windows Server operating system, it is necessary to periodically download Windows Updates.   Updates are normally downloaded directly to the ASM from the Microsoft Windows Update website. 

...

Info

The WSUS installation instructions are provided as a convenience.    Please consult the Microsoft's WSUS documentation should you have any further questions or issues.

...

Info

An additional benefit to using a WSUS Server is that the ASM installs Windows Updates much faster.    The WSUS Server works by pre-fetching all necessary updates as they become available.   When the ASM requests an update, the update itself is loaded to the ASM directly from the WSUS Server.

...

The WSUS Server must be configured to accept incoming requests from the ASM server.    Use  Use the instructions below to configure the WSUS server to accept incoming requests. 

...

The ASM must be configured to use the local WSUS server instead of Microsoft's Windows Update site.  There There are two methods for configuring the ASM to use a WSUS Server to download updates:

...

To set the ASM's WSUS Server via the ASM registry, modify the WindowsUpdate key with the Sonus Require values as noted below:

Warning

Do not modify the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU key to permit the ASM to automatically load updates from either the WSUS Server or Microsoft Windows Update site.    Sonus selects specific updates to the ASM to ensure the SBC appliance operates within our published specifications, eliminating updates which might either break functionality or reduce the ASM's capacity.  

Downloading unapproved updates to the ASM violates Sonus' Terms of Service

How to Initiate ASM Roll-up Updates

Go to ASM Roll-up Update page to apply ASM Roll-up updates on Sonus SBC 1000/2000 nodes.

Warning
