TFS Proxy setup

Hi,

Am planning to use TFS for source control server at client site and TFS proxy at an offshore location where by dev team sits. How do I set-up a proxy What is the protocol that the proxy will use to talk to TFS when downloading source code What will be the network bandwidth required Do we have best practices for using TFS proxy for accessing source control at a remote location

Many thanks for any help or advice,

Dharan

    Setting up: Check the walkthrough at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms242919(VS.80).aspx

    Protocol: it's the exact same HTTP calls that the client uses to download files

    Network bandwidth: depends on your files and usage patterns, but it should be less bandwidth than not having the proxy since you'll get some cache hits on the proxy and avoid using the bandwidth of the higher latency link to the main TFS server.

    Best practices: see the walkthrough
