Whitelisting KBs

I work with a wide range of equipment that requires validated patches to be installed. For many devices, the exclude list suits my needs, but I've run into a few devices that really need to have a whitelist of KBs instead of blacklist.

For instance, I have a device that I need to install only:

KB4074598
KB4074587
KB2952664
KB4056894
KB4025337
KB4038779
KB4034679
KB4022722
KB4048960
KB4038779
KB4034679
KB4022722
KB4048960
KB4041678
KB4056897


Is there a way to run WSUS in a way (or install it in a way) that only installs that list of updates? I am hoping for a method like the simple exclude method already presented.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

For sure. Just check the FAQ:

A: Yes.
To avoid dynamic update URL determination during download, add "skipdynamic=Enabled" to the [Miscellaneous] section of your UpdateGenerator.ini file.
To avoid dynamic update ID determination during installation, set "skipdynamic=Enabled" in the [Installation] section of your UpdateInstaller.ini file.
