That's a possibility, but I'm not sure how to classify the traffic. I grabbed a pcap of the windows update, but I haven't looked closely at it yet. The one thing I don't want to do is try to maintain a list of CDN server IP's....sounds like whack a mole.

Where do you do your bandwidth shaping now?

You may be able to hack something together in mikrotik if your shaping at a central location.

Not sure that I could prevent the customer from having a problem. Maybe it's time to bite the bullet and get Procera.

Only once.

We allow updates on one machine. Then we let the other machines get it from the pioneer.

Bill, that prevents you from sharing updates across the internet so you're not getting killed in the uplink direction, but you still get crushed in the downlink direction.

You can change the way that windows gets/sends updates. Turn off "internet", and only allow "LAN".

There's no way for the user to limit consumption...at least not that I can see. There are a couple of ways to stop it from ever updating, but really I want to either schedule it to do updates from 1am-6am, or limit Windows update to 1mbps.
