--> Turn on BranchCache <--CORRECT --> Enable Automatic Hosted Cache Discovery by Service Connection ... <-- CORRECT WRONG -->Set BranchCache Hosted Cache mode<--- THIS IS A SETTING FOR THE SERVER

In the scenario you've described, the main goal is to configure client laptops to use the local BranchCache server automatically when they are in a branch office. This is achieved primarily through the "Enable Automatic Hosted Cache Discovery by Service connection point" setting, which allows laptops to find and use the local cache server without manual configuration. So, to minimize administrative effort and ensure that laptops in each branch office automatically utilize the local BranchCache server, it's recommended to configure: 1. Turn on BranchCache (YES) 2. Enable Automatic Hosted Cache Discovery by Service connection point (YES) These settings will help client laptops discover and use the local cache server in their respective branch offices efficiently.

"Turn on BranchCache" "Enable Automatic Hosted Cache Discovery by Service Connection Point" Why: question ask “The solution must minimize administrative effort”. If you use “Set BrancheCache Hosted mode” would work but you have to define in every site de name of the cache server.

The provided answer is wrong. "Turn on BranchCache" & "Enable Automatic Hosted Cache Discovery by Service Connection Point" is the correct answer.

Turn on branchcache is a must https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/media/branchcache/bc_modes.jpg "In each branch office, you install a server that runs Windows Server and the BranchCache feature" Other answer is to set hosted cache mode

I think that is turn on branchcache and setup branchcache hosted mode

I agree with chadamantium. "Turn on BranchCache", "Enable Automatic...". I can't see the option that empee1977 is talking about. "Configure BranchCache". Answer would be automatic while "Set BranchCache Hosted Cache Mode" and "Configure Hosted Cache Servers" require you configure the server name. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/branchcache/deploy/use-group-policy-to-configure-domain-member-client-computers#bkmk_gp When you enable both the Set BranchCache Distributed Cache mode and the Enable Automatic Hosted Cache Discovery by Service Connection Point policy settings, client computers operate in BranchCache distributed cache mode unless they find a hosted cache server in the branch office, at which point they operate in hosted cache mode.

Since in every branch office we have server, the hosted cache mode is better. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/branchcache/branchcache#BKMK_2
