Planning for Client Settings in Configuration Manager
Use client settings in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager to configure user and
device settings for the hierarchy. Client settings include configuration options such as the
hardware inventory and schedule, and the polling schedule for client policy.
All Configuration Manager clients in the hierarchy use the Default Client Settings that are
automatically created when you install Configuration Manager. However, you can modify the
default client settings and you can create custom client settings to override the default client
settings for specific users or devices.
When you create a set of custom client settings, you must assign it to one or more
collections for the settings to be applied to the collection members. If you apply multiple sets
of custom client settings to the same user or device, you can control the order in which these
settings are applied according to the order that you specify.
Custom device or user settings with an Order value of 1 are always processed last and will
override any other configurations. The Default Client Settings has a permanent order of

10,000, which ensures it is always applied before any custom settings are applied. When
there is a conflict of settings, the client setting that was applied last (with the lower order
value) overrides any previous settings. You can view the resultant client settings for a user
or a device by using the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager reports.

How to Configure Client Settings in Configuration Manager
You manage all client settings in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager from the Client
Settings node in the Administration workspace of the Configuration Manager console. Modify
the default settings when you want to configure settings for all users and devices in the
hierarchy that do not have any custom settings applied. If you want to apply different settings
to just some users or devices, create custom settings and deploy these to collections.
Note:You can also use configuration items to manage clients to assess, track, and
remediate the configuration compliance of devices.

Really not sure:
-Create a new set of custom client agent settings for the marketing department and include
the custom registry information.
– Edit ClientSettings2 and include the custom registry information. <— probably not
Because editing isn’t that easy.
It is common sense, that you just add another client setting and deploy it to the collection.
Why? All settings can be separately deleted and especially named Easier to handle.
