<h2>Migration Information</h2>
<p>New Servers of Windows Server Update Service (WSUS) and Windows Activation Service (KMS) in Region eu-de have been set up to support latest MS features and products e.g. Windows Server 2022. These servers have new IP addresses and will be activated by changing the DNS entries on January 17th, 2022. </p>
<p>If the DNS names below are used, the Windows servers will use the new servers automatically. </p>
<p>WSUS and KMS clients must be reconfigured manually, if IP addresses or different DNS names are used. </p>
