You have two servers named Server1 and Server2 that run Windows Server 2016.
You plan to implement Storage Replica to replicate the contents of volumes on Server1 to Server2.
You need to ensure that the replication traffic between the servers is limited to a maximum of 100 Mbps.
Which cmdlet should you run?

A. Set-NetUDPSetting
B. New-StorageQosPolicy
C. Set-SmbBandwidthLimit
D. Set-NetTCPSetting
E. Set-NetworkController
F. New-NetTransportFilter

C -- To configure replication bandwidth maximum usage, use the SMB bandwidth limiter. This is a global setting for all Storage Replica traffic and therefore affects all replication from this server. Set-SmbBandwidthLimit -Category StorageReplication -BytesPerSecond x https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/storage-replica/storage-* You can also use network QoS policies to shape Storage Replica traffic. Set-NetQosPolicy -InputObject -ThrottleRateActionBitsPerSecond <UInt64> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/netqos/set-netqospolicy?view=winserver2012r2-ps&redirectedfrom=MSDN
