That’s a Win8 option only I believe, but were still on Win7.

Yeah, or you just set the BITS policy for costed network? Think that should 
still apply even if there is a VPN on top?

Alternate Content Provider is exactly what that's for (1e Nomad or Adaptiva 
OneSite).

 

We happen to use Nomad; but of course evaluate both.

Just trying to see what others do in regards to this.

 

We have a bunch of people with laptops that connect to us via VPN, and 
sometimes they might be connecting over a 3G card, which doesn’t have the best 
bandwidth.  We would like to be able to say if laptop is coming in over 3G then 
either don’t patch or just download patches slow (BITS throttle).  If they are 
coming in over some higher bandwidth pipe  (e.g. cable modem at home) then 
patch and download patches quicker.  I don’t really see any way of doing this.  
I think it’s all or nothing we could setup the VPN subnet as slow connection, 
enable BITS throttling for these specific laptops but whatever we set for BITS, 
let’s say 100K from 8AM-6PM it would also limit people who are coming in over 
their fast cable modem, so now they would also download patches slowly.  I know 
you can do some more tweaking in regards to cost with Win8.1, but we’re all Win 
7 laptops.  

 

Have others come across this and if so, what did you guys do?

 

Thanks

 

Rob
