Using BITS to distrubute packages without an Inedo agent



  • Hello, I am wondering if it would be possible to add support for BITS to be used to distribute Universal Packages instead of using Inedo agent? Every supported version of Windows has BITS, and is allowed through most firewalls, especially since System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) uses BITS as well.

    Product: ProGet
    Version: 5.1.23

    In what context would this protocol be used? My understanding is that BITS is used for background/asynchronous transfers, and in the common Otter use-case, the package needs to be available on the server in order to progress through a configuration plan, therefore the only benefit I can see is the network throttling.
