New Post: Support for downstream WSUS Servers?

Indeed it does work! I stood up a downstream WSUS server, added the cert to the "Trusted Publisher" store, pointed a client to the downstream server and all worked successfully.

It appears paid products (SolarWinds) places the update in the WSUS Console when publishing, so I'm still curious why "Never make update visible in WSUS Console" is the recommended setting. Can you explain why this is? Are there any known issues if an update is visible in the WSUS Console?

Thanks for the help!
