Rich,

We have a similar environment where I work.  Granted our remote sites are not 
overseas but we have a large number of remote sites connected via slow WAN 
links.

You already have Distribution Points in that remote site and that's all you 
need.  You don't need to worry about a Management Point since those clients are 
already using the MP/MPs in your central office.  You could add PXE support to 
that DP to allow your machines to PXE boot to build and if you are going to use 
USMT you can add a State Migration Point to that remote DP.

I would not complicate the setup.  Having the DP in that remote site is really 
all that you need.  It's already serving content to the existing clients, so 
your boundary restrictions are in place and working.  An OSD build is really no 
different.

Subject: [mssms] OSD over Slow Link

Morning All,

We are currently in the process of moving our OSD infrastructure from MDT to 
SCCM, and 99% of this is now complete.  The remaining 1% is an off-site 
location in a different country, with a 10mbps (at best) link.

We currently have a Distribution Point setup out there which has been working 
just fine for the measly 150 clients that are out there with application 
deployments\updates etc.  However for OSD, I'm obviously aware of the need for 
a Management Point to communicate to, which I no doubt the clients will be 
unable to do due to firewall's etc in winpe, let alone we probably don't want 
that happening over the link.

So, the question is, what would you recommend? Or, How do you currently do this?

Is this grounds for a Secondary site?

Also, domain join etc isn't a problem, all that infrastructure is setup.

Thank you
Rich Mawdsley
