Creating and Configuring GPO Links
After a GPO is created and configured, the next step is to link the GPOs to the desired Active Directory containers. To link an existing GPO to an Active Directory container, follow these steps:
1. Log on to a designated Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012 administrative system and open the Group Policy Management Console.
2. Expand the forest node, expand the domain node, and expand the domain to expose the Group Policy Objects container and all the other domain containers and organizational units.
3. Right-click the desired site, domain, or organizational unit, and select Link an Existing GPO.
4. In the Select GPO window, select the desired domain and GPO, and click OK to link it.
