1. As with the WSUS Server collection, use the procedure described in "Performing an Initial Collection"
on page 67 to initiate your WSUS Client collection.
2. Using this procedure, instead of selecting the default filter set, choose the Select a Collection Filter Set
to apply to these machines option, and then select Microsoft WSUS Client Filters from the Filter
Sets list.
Exploring WSUS Collection Results
After performing initial WSUS Server and Client collections, you can explore that data in the portal using
the Console and Reports sliders.
