How to Stop Accidental SCCM ConfigMgr Rollout Traffic over WAN Configuration Manager. Over the years, we (SCCM admins) have been waiting for the “Big Red Button” feature to help stop all accidental deployments and package replications over the WAN.
I even had a bad experience deploying office packages to remote DPs in Australia. During office hours, we deployed the office package to Australian DPs, and the WAN bandwidth was NOT very good. So, SCCM started using 80% of the bandwidth for business users.
All the business applications started experiencing performance issues, such as slowness, not responding, etc. SCCM / ConfigMgr has no mechanism to stop package replication or traffic over the WAN immediately. However, we can have some workarounds to prevent SCCM WAN traffic. I don’t think most of them are very effective.
The “big red button” is one of the most requested features in SCCM ConfigMgr. However, this feature or button is unavailable in native SCCM /ConfigMgr. Adaptiva OneSite is an Enterprise-class P2P technology that is a scalable, secure, and business-friendly product.

Hi Anoop, Can you pls assit in deleting active directory discovery account created in sccm2012 for disovering untrusted domain from our internal infra. SCCM server. When i navigate to Admin->Overview->Security->Accounts and right click “delete” is greyed out.
Hi RBK ! – Probably you need to remove that account from other wherever you’ve used it and then try.
