To my knowledge, there is no throttling of update binary downloads.

And yes, update binary downloads happen when the ADR runs so moving it later 
would defer your bandwidth usage.

Subject: [mssms] Throttle download of updates from MS to SCCM server?

Every so often, early in the afternoon of the second Tuesday of the month, I 
get complaints of network slowness.  Of course, our internet bandwidth is maxed 
out, and it's mostly going to our SCCM server downloading the new windows 
updates.

I'm thinking about it, and configmgr shouldn't actually download the updates 
until they are set to be deployed, so maybe if I just change the time of my ADR 
to run later in the day, that will delay the download until after business 
hours.

Regardless, I thought I had seen an option to throttle such downloads, but I 
can't seem to find it now that I'm looking for it.  Was I imagining that, or is 
there an option somewhere to control the amount of bandwidth the configmgr 
server can use to download patches from the internet?
