MD-102 Practice Question: Deploy Windows 11 to a remote office with limited…
You need to deploy Windows 11 to a remote office with limited bandwidth. Which deployment method is most appropriate?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse BranchCache with peer caching in general or assume multicast is always the best for bandwidth savings, but multicast still requires a full WAN transfer of the image, whereas BranchCache avoids redundant WAN traffic entirely after the first download.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Deployment using BranchCache
BranchCache is the most appropriate deployment method for a remote office with limited bandwidth because it allows clients to cache content locally from a peer after the first download, reducing WAN link usage. In Windows deployment, BranchCache can be used with Configuration Manager or standalone to distribute OS images efficiently by having clients retrieve data from local peers rather than repeatedly downloading from a central source over a slow link.
