I dont see this mentioned anywhere, but how many clients are in this remote site? If theres only one client in the location, then you probably dont need a Secondary Site or a Distribution Point, because content will only get downloaded once anyway. On the other hand, if you have 1,000 clients behind a 1.5Mbit/sec pipe, then youll probably need a Secondary Site (and Distribution Point) in that location to proxy management traffic and handle content distribution.
FYI, there is no such thing as a Central Primary Site Server in ConfigMgr 2012. There is a Central Administration Site (CAS), or Primary Site, or Secondary Site. Im not sure what you mean by RDC. That could potentially mean: Remote Different Compression, which is a service provided by the operating system, or it could mean a Read-only Domain Controller. Or does it maybe mean Remote Datacenter, since you referenced that a couple of times? Cheers, Trevor Sullivan From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Justin P. White Sent: Monday, October 14, 2013 10:26 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] Tips to conserver bandwidth in SCCM 2012 Hi, Im on the testing phase of integrating a site with low bandwidth into our SCCM environment. Looks like their WAN speed clocks in around 1.5mb to give you guys an idea. I have installed a distribution point and a management point active on their local server. We have a central primary site server on our remote data center that talks to it. Should I try to just set up a secondary site instead? Or just use the bandwidth throttling in BITS to contain the amount of traffic being sent to our RDC? How would you guys approach integrating a low bandwidth site? Does having that Management Point installed locally automatically control the clients to use that management point or will it try to talk over the WAN to the management point set up at my RDC?
