Your company has a main office and four branch offices. The main office is located in London.
The network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The network is configured as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
Each office contains several servers that run Windows Server 2012.
In each branch office, you plan to deploy an additional 20 servers that will run Windows Server 2012. Some of the servers will have a Server Core installation of
Windows Server 2012.
You identify the following requirements for the deployment of the new servers:
Operating system images must be administered centrally. The operating system images must be deployed by using PXE. The WAN traffic caused by the
deployment of each operating system must be minimized.
You need to recommend a solution for the deployment of the new servers.
What should you recommend?
Exhibits
A.
Deploy Windows Deployment Services (WDS) in each office. Replicate the images by using Distributed File System (DFS) Replication,
B.
Deploy Windows Deployment Services (WDS) in the main office only. Replicate the images by using Distributed File System (DFS) Replication.
C.
Deploy Windows Deployment Services (WDS) in each office. Copy the images by using BranchCache.
D.
Deploy Windows Deployment Services (WDS) in the main office only. Copy the images by using BranchCache.
Explanation:
DFS Replication is a replication engine that you can use to replicate images between Windows Deployment Services servers.
Storing and Replicating Images Using DFS
At first I was thinking of D. Deploy Windows Deployment Services (WDS) in the main office only. Copy the images by using BranchCache, since each office have servers running Server 2012 which could be used for BC hosted cache mode.
However, you do not need to save traffic for initial images replication to branch offices. It says “WAN traffic caused by the DEPLOYMENT OF EACH OS must be minimized”, so traffic caused by initial DFS replication is not the topic. So, given answer seems to be most elegant design.
