Plan for off-site end user backup
In the previous recipe, we looked at the prerequisites that are required to set up Windows client protection and set up an initial protection group so that we could start an initial synchronization. Now, let's look a bit deeper into what is required when protecting clients off-site.
Getting ready
Microsoft System Center DPM can protect Windows clients when they are connected either via a VPN or DirectAccess connection. For Windows clients that are recurringly disconnected, it is recommended that the endpoint device has a minimum network bandwidth of 1 megabit per second (Mbps).
