Delivery Optimization question and the new Microsoft Teams client - we have D.O. configured and are seeing alot of internet traffic when Teams updates and did not see this with the legacy Teams client. Does the New Teams client support D.O.?
- Question - are you configuring the behaviour of DO using Intune Config Profiles? We have this configured and it seems to work very well. VPN devices go directly out of the users home broadband connection (as they're told not to peer), but devices connected to a Corporate network (WiFi or cabled) peer content between themselves. This can be seem in the local activity monitor for DO on the devices themselves. Also seen in the Azure Workbooks
- We are leveraging Configuration Manager boundaries for D.O. and like you have home users go direct to the internet.
- Ok cool, same sort of way just with less settings by the looks of it. I assume you're not up and running with Intune? There are a lot more granular settings in the Config Profiles if you are. You could also utilise Microsoft Connect Cache (MCC) if you have an Azure tenant?? Knowledge is limited on this, but you could even use an on-prem server to stage the content, an MECM MP perhaps if this is viable? Not sure of the layout of your network though. Hope this helps

According to this article, Delivery Optimization is used only if you're installing or updating Microsoft 365 Apps directly from the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN) on the internet. If you want some of these devices, such as those on Current Channel, to take advantage of Delivery Optimization, you need to reconfigure them to use the Office CDN.
- M365 Apps are configured to pull updates from the CDN.

I was able to get in contact with someone on the PM team. New Teams doesn't use DO peer-to-peer, only the HTTP Downloader. This is documented in the following article: What is Delivery Optimization?
