1 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:06,660 Question. 2 00:00:07,530 --> 00:00:14,220 Many organizations rely heavily on security group filtering to scope GPOs rather than linking GPOs to 3 00:00:14,220 --> 00:00:17,580 specific go use in these organizations. 4 00:00:17,610 --> 00:00:23,460 GPOs typically are linked very high in the Active Directory logical structure to the domain itself or 5 00:00:23,460 --> 00:00:24,720 to a first level of view. 6 00:00:25,530 --> 00:00:31,530 What advantages do you gain by using security group filtering rather than GPO links to manage a GPO 7 00:00:31,530 --> 00:00:31,980 scope? 8 00:00:32,850 --> 00:00:33,420 Answer. 9 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:40,470 The fundamental problem of relying on oh used to skip the application of GPOs is that an EU is a fixed, 10 00:00:40,710 --> 00:00:43,140 inflexible structure within ads. 11 00:00:43,530 --> 00:00:47,070 A single user or computer can exist within only one EU. 12 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:53,610 As organisations get larger and more complex, configuration requirements become difficult to match 13 00:00:53,610 --> 00:00:56,460 in a 1 to 1 relationship with any container structure. 14 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:03,240 With security groups, a user or computer can exist in as many groups as necessary, and you can add 15 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:08,370 or remove them easily without impacting the security or management of the user or computer account. 16 00:01:09,260 --> 00:01:15,140 Question Why might it be useful to create an exemption group, a group that has denied the apply group 17 00:01:15,140 --> 00:01:18,050 policy permission for every GPO that you create? 18 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:19,490 Answer. 19 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:25,830 There are very few scenarios in which you can guarantee that all of the settings in a GPO will always 20 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,880 need to apply to all users and computers within its scope. 21 00:01:30,740 --> 00:01:35,930 By having an exemption group, you will always be able to respond to situations in which you must exclude 22 00:01:35,930 --> 00:01:37,250 a user or computer. 23 00:01:38,150 --> 00:01:42,380 This also can help in troubleshooting, compatibility and functionality problems. 24 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:48,470 Sometimes specific GPIO settings can interfere with the functionality of an application. 25 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,960 To test whether the application works on a clean installation of the Windows operating system. 26 00:01:54,110 --> 00:01:58,790 You might need to exclude the user or computer temporarily from the scope of GPOs. 27 00:01:59,670 --> 00:02:04,350 Question Do you use loopback policy processing in your organization? 28 00:02:05,190 --> 00:02:10,140 In which scenarios and for which policy settings can loopback policy processing add value? 29 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:11,500 Answer. 30 00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:13,500 Answers will vary. 31 00:02:14,430 --> 00:02:20,400 Scenarios could include in conference rooms and kiosks on virtual desktop infrastructure, computers 32 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,140 and in other standard environments.
