Choosing Replication Scheduling
Replication traffic can potentially consume all available bandwidth on small or saturated WAN links. By changing the site link replication schedule for off-hours, you can easily force this type of traffic to occur during times when the link is not utilized as heavily. Of course, the drawback to this approach is that changes made on one side of the site link would not be replicated until the replication schedule dictates. Weighing the needs of the WAN with the consistency needs of your directory is, therefore, important. Throttling the replication schedule is just another tool that can help to achieve these goals.
