Summary

Group Policy can be extended to accommodate almost any network environment. These networks include remote access connections, slow network connections, special security requirements, Terminal Services sessions, and more. When custom scenarios arise, you have great flexibility within Group Policy to meet your needs. Settings such as loopback processing, slow link detection, and Terminal Services settings allow you to easily control almost any environment. These settings should be used only for unique situations, to allow the default Group Policy behavior to work to your advantage when you need to customize a user’s environment.
