Group Policy Management Consoles

Explanation:

Group Policy settings are configured in Group Policy objects (GPOs). You can link GPOs to domains, sites and organizational units (OUs). For even more control, GPOs can be applied according to the results of Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) filters, although WMI filters should be used sparingly because they can significantly increase policy processing time.

The Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) is a built-in Windows administration tool that enables administrators to manage Group Policy in an Active Directory forest and obtain data for troubleshooting Group Policy. You can find the Group Policy Management Console in the Tools menu of Microsoft Windows Server Manager. It is not a best practice to use domain controllers for everyday management tasks, so you should install the Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for your version of Windows.
