Let me elaborate, since that might not be the best way of explaining it:
By configuring Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows
Components\Windows Update in your Group Policy, what you're effectively
saying is:
"Hey! All you clients that this GPO applies to! When you need to go get
updates, use THIS server instead of going to Windows Update."
As long as your clients are SUS-aware, that's all it takes.
