Group Policy Loopback Processing

Group Policy loopback processing, shown in Figure 7, allows for the processing of both the Computer Configuration and User Configuration nodes within a policy even if the user object is not in the same container as the computer that the group policy is linked to. As an example, this function would be useful with a Remote Desktop Session Host deployment where you want to apply computer configuration policies to configure the Remote Desktop server settings but you also want to control the user settings of any user who logs on to the server, regardless of where the actual user account is stored in Active Directory.

Group Policy Slow Link Detection and Network Location Awareness

Group Policy uses several mechanisms to determine whether a policy should be processed. One of the mechanisms used by the Group Policy client computer is called slow link detection. By default, network tests are performed between the client computer and the domain controller to determine the speed of the link between the systems. If the speed is determined to be less than 500kbit/sec, the Group Policy does not process any policies. Slow link detection default settings, along with the ability to disable slow link detection, are configurable with each policy.

In previous versions, Group Policy utilized the ICMP protocol or Ping to detect slow links; this setting is shown in Figure 8. With Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2, Group Policy now uses the Windows Network Location Awareness service to determine network status. The slow link detection settings are controlled within the Policies\Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy sections of the GPO.
