For security reasons, I would strongly consider splitting the site roles across multiple servers...based upon the type of protocol used to communicate with IIS:
* All HTTP-enabled roles on Server A o FSP o PKI CRL-DP (Note: this is not a ConfigMgr site role. However, it is required if you the site is configured with CRL Checking enabled (and you absolutely should if you want the best security scenario :)) * All HTTPS-enabled roles on Server B o DP o MP o SUP Troy L.

One server will host FSP and the CRL website. I'm going to have another server that will have Software Update Point, Management Point and Distribution Point roles. Would these servers be best served with Client or Server OS? I don't have a need for PXE booting to these servers, so not sure why I wouldn't just throw Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 on these two machines. Unless there are other requirements I am overlooking.
