When creating and configuring an active software update point or active Internet-based software update point in Configuration Manager 2007, the port settings used by the Microsoft Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) 3.0 server must be specified.

Use one of the following procedures to determine the port settings used by WSUS.

To determine the port settings in IIS 6.0

  1. On the WSUS server, open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.

  2. Expand Web Sites, right-click the Web site for the WSUS server, and then click Properties. It is recommended that the WSUS custom Web site be used, but the default Web site might have been chosen when WSUS was being installed.

  3. Click the Web Site tab. The HTTP port setting is displayed in TCP port, and the HTTPS port setting is displayed in SSL port.

To determine the port settings used in IIS 7.0

  1. On the WSUS server, open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.

  2. Expand Sites, right-click the Web site for the WSUS server, and then click Edit Bindings. It is recommended that the WSUS custom Web site be used, but the default Web site might have been chosen when WSUS was being installed. The port is displayed for each binding.
