have inherited and existing 2007 solution with appx 800 packages/advertisements to migrate to 2012. ALL advertisements set to NOT download over slow connections, and no slow boundaries/connections have been configured - However ALL connections are actually "slow" - so DPs are configured for BITS, BITS is set at the client, and GPO manages BITS throttling settings for clients. So every download is via BITS, even over "Fast" connections
We need to maintain the BITS throttling in the 2012 solution, I dont want to amend 800 advertisements, however a little confused over how the DPs/BITS/Clients now operate
.
So, three questions :-
1. As 2012 DPs arent manually configured to use BITS, will clients use BITS for download over a "FAST" connection ?
or is BITS is only ever used over a SLOW connection:- if so
2. Is it possible to amend advertisements when using the migration tool (ie to allow download over slow connection)
3. Is the only solution to setup SLOW connection boundary groups in 2012 and create a script to update each advertisement to download over slow/fallback connection ?
many thanks
