1 00:00:00,390 --> 00:00:05,100 You define configuration changes by configure and policies Aaronson GPO. 2 00:00:05,220 --> 00:00:12,570 However the configuration changes in a GPO do not affect computers or users in your organization until 3 00:00:12,570 --> 00:00:17,490 you specify the computers or users to reach the GPO replies. 4 00:00:17,490 --> 00:00:25,470 This is called scope in a GPO the scope of a GPO is a collection of users and computers that will apply 5 00:00:25,470 --> 00:00:27,310 the sentence in the GPO. 6 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,340 You can use several methods to manage the scope in G bills. 7 00:00:31,350 --> 00:00:40,290 The first is a GPO link you can link GPO always two sides demands and or use in a tedious the site domain 8 00:00:40,350 --> 00:00:48,620 or you then becomes the maximum scope of the GPO all computer send to users within the site domain or 9 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:55,890 you including those in child or use are affected by the configurations that the policies settings in 10 00:00:55,890 --> 00:00:57,660 the GPO specify. 11 00:00:57,660 --> 00:01:04,380 Note here that you can link a GPO to more than one site domain or you you should be careful linking 12 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:11,190 GPL is to multiple sites which can introduce performance issues when the policy is applied. 13 00:01:11,190 --> 00:01:18,480 This is because in a multi site network the GPO is are stored in the domain controllers of the domain 14 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,370 where the policy was created. 15 00:01:20,370 --> 00:01:28,230 Consequently computers and the other domains might need to traverse a slow wide area network link to 16 00:01:28,230 --> 00:01:29,760 obtain the GPO. 17 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:37,110 Further you can narrow the scope of the GPO with one or two types of filters with security filters you 18 00:01:37,110 --> 00:01:43,860 can use permissions to specify to which users computers or members of security groups. 19 00:01:43,950 --> 00:01:53,340 The GPO does or does not imply windows management instrumentation or w my filters specify a scope by 20 00:01:53,340 --> 00:02:01,050 using the characteristics of a system such as Operation system version or free disk space use security 21 00:02:01,050 --> 00:02:10,080 filters ANWR my filters to narrow or specify the scope within the initial scope created by the GPO link 22 00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:11,430 as a node here. 23 00:02:11,430 --> 00:02:19,920 Windows Server 2008 introduced a new component of group policy which is called group policy preferences. 24 00:02:19,920 --> 00:02:26,610 You can filter or targets the surgeons that you configure by group policy preferences within a group 25 00:02:26,610 --> 00:02:34,590 policy object based on several criteria with targeted preferences you can further refine the scope of 26 00:02:34,590 --> 00:02:37,200 preferences within a single GPO.
