Are these DPs Svr2012 R2? If so also enable disk dedupe to run nightly on the content lib

One other question for anyone that can help, in another guide it showed there's a checkbox in the DP properties to enable BranchCache. When I check for that same setting it isn't there. Now I'm guessing this is because this feature exists in R2/SP2 and not 2012 SP1 (our site version). In that case, do I just need to add the BranchCache feature on the DP manually? Daniel.

I would pick BranchCache over a DP any time of the day for that reason alone. Also, BranchCache scales better as it's not a single machine sharing the content.

The workstation DP gives you the "Rate Limits" tab, just like a server DP, for bandwidth throttling, works great.

If you Branch Cache enable your DP and enable Branch Cache on the clients then this will knock it on the head. This works best where the advertisements that you have are required ones as the content will always download in background priority (which abides by BITS limits) From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Phil Wilcock Sent: 04 February 2016 12:52 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: Controlling content to a small site with a slow WAN link Use BranchCache + BITS policy and you should be good for just 2 machines. Making a DP would be overkill IMO Cheers Phil From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Corkill, Daniel Sent: 04 February 2016 00:15 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] Controlling content to a small site with a slow WAN link We've got two sites with two computers each and these siBranchtes are connected via slow, unreliable WAN links. I've got maintenance windows in place for the clients and that's all well and good, but I'm constantly getting complaints that bandwidth is being used by ConfigMgr. From what I can tell it appears to be the clients downloading the content for SCEP updates and software updates we deploy monthly. Three ideas I've come up with so far: 1. Throw a desktop at each site running Windows Server and make it a DP, then I can control when content is sent to this DP. 2. Make one of the existing desktops at each site a DP. 3. Use BranchCache I'm leaning towards option two. I've never made a Windows 7 client a DP so I have no idea how reliable it is or whether it's recommended. What would you do?
