  1. 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
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/netqos/set-netqospolicy?view=winserver2012r2-ps&redirectedfrom=MSDN
    OR:
    New-StorageQosPolicy -ThrottleLimit

  2. B — (Would have been (C) but it has incorrect syntax – statement should start with “Set-NetQosPolicy” NOT “New-StorageQosPolicy.”)
