Determine Distribution Point for package deployment

[SCCM4EVA]

hi Team,

 

I am deploying a MS Hotfix via package deployment. I have created the package and configured the program within it. I have also deployed to several distribution points (servers). How do I ensure the package is pulled from the closest distribution point (server) and downloaded to CCM\cache folder of the PC's I am deploying to.

 

It seems my package which is only a few hundred kb seems to take ages to download and run on the PC.

Make you DPs protected and specify the local subnet, ip range or active directory site for each distrubution point.

ok thanks, I've deleted the role from my local server and will re-add as a protected DP and specify a couple of subnets.

Ok, so I have re-added as a protected DP, how can I tell that my clients are using this DP to download my package?
