Hi Azure Community,

My WSUS server is hosted on-premise and few servers are hosted on Azure Cloud.

Someone please guide me how to connect my azure servers to WSUS server.

This is to push patches in one go

    Depending on how you have them setup, if they already have a connection to your internal network, leveraging GPO or registry to point them to your WSUS server is the easy way.

    Thanks for your posting on Q&A.

    I agree with AJTek-Adam-J-Marshall. As far as I know, the devices have to be assigned the Specify intranet Microsoft update service location group policy to point the devices to the WSUS server to get the approved updates.
