00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:13,090
Item level targeting is a feature that allows group policy preferences settings to apply to computers

2
00:00:13,090 --> 00:00:20,230
or user objects only when the computer or user objects match defined criteria.

3
00:00:20,500 --> 00:00:30,130
This makes advanced targeting control possible and allows group policy administrators to pinpoint exactly

4
00:00:30,430 --> 00:00:33,400
where and when a settings should apply.

5
00:00:33,670 --> 00:00:38,620
Item level targeting offers the following capabilities.

6
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:43,810
You can use it in targeting 27 different categories.

7
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:52,480
Item level targeting can use this 27 different categories by targeting computers and user objects.

8
00:00:52,660 --> 00:00:55,660
This allows for precision targeting.

9
00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:06,100
Another capability that combines different categories together by using and or or boolean logic.

10
00:01:06,460 --> 00:01:12,130
Instead of using a single category for targeting, you can use multiple categories.

11
00:01:12,370 --> 00:01:16,930
Another capability of it is refresh an item level targeting.

12
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,710
During the group policy background refresh.

13
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:29,080
This means that configure and compute around user objects by using item level targeting is a dynamic

14
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:33,700
way to manage the user objects and computer objects.

15
00:01:33,850 --> 00:01:42,670
Here is a list of categories and while a billion item level targeting among them is disk space merge

16
00:01:42,670 --> 00:01:52,870
did file merge older query organizational unit, operating system ram side time range and so on.

17
00:01:53,170 --> 00:02:00,760
Know by using the different categories with boolean logic expressions, you can create precise item

18
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:06,430
level targeting for each group policy preference of that you configure.

19
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:11,230
Here are some scenarios in which you could use item level targeting.

20
00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:16,720
You can restrict drive mappings to an Active Directory security group.

21
00:02:16,990 --> 00:02:24,790
You can go a step further by restricting drive mappings with sensitive content to a specific IP address

22
00:02:24,790 --> 00:02:25,420
range.

23
00:02:25,690 --> 00:02:34,360
Another scenario is that you can restrict drive mappings to computers with only a specific file or program

24
00:02:34,630 --> 00:02:36,400
present on this computer.

25
00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:43,090
For example, there is no need to map a drive to where an application stores data.

26
00:02:43,330 --> 00:02:50,920
If the application is not present on that computer, you can configure different power plants for portable

27
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:52,780
and desktop computers.

28
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:58,660
You can go a step further and base the power plan on time of day.

29
00:02:58,930 --> 00:03:08,140
So client computers go into standby mode after short or times during not work hours with item level

30
00:03:08,140 --> 00:03:08,650
target.

31
00:03:08,650 --> 00:03:16,690
And you can also deploy printers only to a portable computers when the users are members of a specific

32
00:03:16,690 --> 00:03:17,110
group.

33
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:26,020
And you can go a step further by deploying one group of printers, two computers that meet certain criteria,

34
00:03:26,020 --> 00:03:35,020
such as if they are portable, being used by a member of a specific group and in a specific IP subnet.

35
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:43,630
You then could deploy another set of printers while the IP subnet change of another scenario of applying

36
00:03:43,630 --> 00:03:51,220
item level targeting is copying Microsoft Office templates, for example, based on the language of

37
00:03:51,220 --> 00:03:54,370
the operating system installed on the computer.

38
00:03:54,610 --> 00:04:02,650
The next scenario is that you can create a short card based on whether the user is a member of a specific

39
00:04:02,650 --> 00:04:06,100
group and the computer has a specific name.

40
00:04:06,370 --> 00:04:14,980
For example, glam term, the time criteria meets a specific time, for example, is between 8 a.m.

41
00:04:14,980 --> 00:04:24,340
and 5 p.m. And the user is connected to a terminal server from a client computer with an IP address

42
00:04:24,340 --> 00:04:27,010
between a specific range, for example.

43
00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:31,090
Five dot and 5.15.

44
00:04:31,330 --> 00:04:39,850
So as you can see, item level targeting is a very powerful and flexible tool that you can implement

45
00:04:39,850 --> 00:04:41,020
in your environment.

46
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:47,470
Next up, we'll have a demonstration where we'll be configuring group policy preferences.

47
00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:49,030
And I'll see you there.
