Think even FOREGROUND is gone after 2 BITS supporters ranted about it… Senior can you confirm?

Isn’t it foreground if user initiated, background for deadline initiated?

Limiting the server traffic is fine, but you’ll want the peer traffic to run at higher speed, since it doesn’t impact the rest of the network (just on that one segment). Also note that these BITS policies only apply to background transfers, not foreground ones. ConfigMgr “required” deployments use foreground BITS jobs, while “available” deployments use background BITS jobs.

We were contemplating utilizing a pretty slow footprint for BITS policy, 1-2MB let's say, across the board, and then narrow that bandwidth further using networking equipment, where appropriate. Anyone else doing something similar?

Have had no complaints. But what does that mean in the big scheme? You could right click any client in the local network of all the sites and make them a DP. We were doing before Branchcache.

Some reason he's post here is not coming through. Basically comes down to a client is looking to deploy a net new SCCM environment. They have 400 sites but the CTO doesn't want servers (DPs) at the sites and he will not pay for Nomad or OneSite. Also they are running Win 7 Pro on the client side. They want to see if anyone has tried a large CM deployment without local DPs and just utilizing BranchCache/BITs. Hey guys, wanted to ask a couple of questions about what we are seeing in the field with BranchCache, ConfigMgr and the PRO SKU of Windows. It is my understanding that Windows PRO editions can be configured to utilize BranchCache in a BITS only operating mode (which seems to be fine for Configuration Manager); my questions, 1. Are we seeing it appear much in the field? Are many of you using BranchCache in mixed Pro and Enterprise SKU environments, or PRO SKU only environments? 2. And more importantly, is it supportable? E.G., Will Microsoft validate and support a configuration that intentionally utilizes this seeming hole in the "BranchCache is an Enterprise feature" conundrum?
