An administrator is unable to get server updates from a WSUS server. However, the administrator was able to patch the server successfully last month. Which of the following should the administrator check first?
When a server that previously received updates from a Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) server suddenly fails to do so, one common cause is that the local software firewall is blocking the necessary ports or services required for WSUS communication. Firewalls can be reconfigured, either intentionally or accidentally, leading to such connectivity issues.
