It can work on networks not behind a NAT.

Okay, so it would be for networks behind a NAT.

Disregard my “AFAIK” answer. This is the real answer per
http://www.nbalonso.com/os-x-server-caching/
“The cache server registers online with Apple and provides
it’s public IP, your servers local IP, internal DNS name?
(not sure of the dns)”

I couldn't see how other people are supposed to know you have
one of these caches running.

OSX Server is a $19.99 add-on to OSX Yosemite. You can
virtualize OSX in ESXi (of course it won’t be supported by
Apple unless it’s Apple hardware.)

Unless the caching server is free. Under what conditions does
Apple put one of these in?

For those that are unaware of it you should take a
look at Apple's Caching Server 2. It is pretty cool,
it provides Apple software updates, iTunes content
and basically anything Apple in a local cache that is
transparent to the client. Apple looks at the source
IP of the device asking for content and tells it to
hit the local IP of your caching server. My day job
is a Network Administrator at a technical college.
This has prevented the "APPLE DAYS OF DOOM" when they
release updates in regards to our open (public)
wireless network.

Hello,
it depends on what you want/can achieve and how
much bandwidth you have
(and the experince you want to give to the users)
In few words: those boxes do not invent bandwidth
they (all) try to
improve how you manage it. So those boxes are
managing the bandwidth
with their policies that could or could not fit
your policies.
Some simple tricks will help you to move the
traffic locally (e.g.
Implementing local web-caching, local DNS, etc)
but for sure you have to
work on the infrastructure to optimize the
traffic. The nice thing, in
that case, is that you will be more aware of what
your users are doing
and how to make them happy; the bad part of the
story is that you have
to spend time (or consultants) to get it. For the
hardware, many are
using Mikrotik CCR or even slower/cheaper
Mikrotik models.
For sure investing more in infrastructure will
help a lot :)
Just my 2 cents
