Setting Up the Software Update Point

There can be several Configuration Manager site systems with the software update point system role, but there can be only one site system server configured as the software update point that synchronizes with a synchronization source like Microsoft Update in a Configuration Manager site. By default this is the first software update point you install in your environment. All other software update points are replicas of the first one you installed and use that one as the synchronization source.

When your Configuration Manager site is in HTTPS mode, you can have an Internet-based software update point assigned to a remote site system server that allows communication from only Internet-based client computers. Also, if the first software update point is on a Network Load Balancing cluster, there should be a software update point installed on every server that is in the NLB cluster. When you have a Central Administration Site in your Configuration Manager 2012 hierarchy, you first need to install and configure a software update point at one of the site servers in your Central Administration Site.
