So I ended up creating a GPO that will apply to all servers and be our default rule set. For servers requiring specific rules, I can either create separate GPOs or apply the rules locally on the server. I'm leaning towards the latter because I'd like to avoid creating a lot of GPOs that may contain only one or two rules and that are linked to a single server. Just curious how others handle this.

Anyone have any suggestions or examples they'd be willing to share?
