Step: Remove BITS Policies
In this step you will check for and remove any BITS policy that has been set within Configuration Manager and/or Active Directory. Such settings can interfere with the efficient operation of the automated Bandwidth mechanisms in StifleR.
Remove Configuration Manager Client BITS Policy (if configured)
In the Configuration Manager console, BITS settings can be configured in "Client Settings" as shown below:
Make sure that this is set to No (default setting), as this configures a local BITS policy on the clients which we do not want.
Remove any BITS AD Group Policy (if configured)
Within the Active Directory Group Policy Editor, go to: Computer Configuration - Policies - Administrative templates - Network - Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)
Ensure that there are no BITS policies configured. If present, remove them from effecting any test clients.
