My names Justin Chalfant! I'm the founder of 
My company is looking to manage some of the servers located in our dmz. They have their own domain as well. I am not sure they will want any infrastructure in the dmz to get updates. We have a single primary server. What would be your high level recommendation on leveraging the existing primary and wsus, to get these servers patched? Our server team hates dealing with these servers as it is all manual.
If you don’t want to put any infrastructure out there, you will need to open the ports used by clients to connect back to your site systems on your local network so they can be managed. Here are the ports used by SCCM: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sccm/core/plan-design/hierarchy/ports#BKMK_CommunicationPorts. Since this is an untrusted domain, you will need to define the sitecode and MP: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sccm/core/clients/deploy/about-client-installation-properties in the install properties. Also, you would need to manually approve the clients in order for them to be approved and get policy after the install if you are using the default client approval in SCCM.
Great advice, thank you for these videos!!
