- question: What content is cached by Microsoft Connected Cache?
answer: For more information about content cached, see [Delivery Optimization and Microsoft Connected Cache content endpoints - Windows Deployment](delivery-optimization-endpoints.md).
- question: Do I need to provide hardware BareMetal server or VM?
answer: Microsoft Connected Cache is a software-only caching solution and requires you to provide your own server to host the software.
- question: Can we use hard drives instead of SSDs?
answer: We highly recommend using SSDs as Microsoft Connected Cache is a read intensive application. We also recommend using multiple drives to improve performance.
- question: Where should we install Microsoft Connected Cache?
answer: You are in control of your hardware and you can pick the location based on your traffic and end clients. You can choose the location where you have your routers or where you have dense traffic or any other parameters.
- question: How can I set up a gMSA account?
answer: Please see [Learn how to provision a Group Managed Service Account on a Domain Controller](/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/manage/group-managed-service-accounts/group-managed-service-accounts/getting-started-with-group-managed-service-accounts#create-group-managed-service-accounts). Make sure that your gMSA has been granted permissions to "Log on as batch job" within the host machine's [local security policies](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-10/security/threat-protection/security-policy-settings/how-to-configure-security-policy-settings).
- question: How can I set up a local account?
answer: Please see Learn how to provision a Local User Account(/windows/create-a-local-user-or-administrator-account-in-windows-20de74e0-ac7f-3502-a866-32915af2a34d).

- question: Where can I monitor cache node usage?
answer: You can monitor your cache node usage on Azure portal. For more information see [Monitor cache node usage Info on Reporting Capabilities](mcc-ent-monitoring.md).
- question: Does Microsoft Connected Cache support Xbox or Teams content?
answer: Currently, Microsoft Connected Cache doesn't support Xbox or Teams content. However, supporting Xbox content is of high priority, and we expect this feature soon. We'll let you know as soon as it becomes available!
- question: How does Microsoft Connected Cache populate its content?
answer: Microsoft Connected Cache is a cold cache warmed by client requests. The client requests content and that is what fills up the cache. There's no off-peak cache fill necessary. Microsoft Connected Cache will reach out to different CDN providers just like a client device would. The traffic flow from Microsoft Connected Cache will vary depending on how you currently transit to each of these CDN providers. The content can come from third party CDNs or from AFD.
- question: Is it possible to not update the Microsoft Connected Cache software or delay update longer than the timeline provided in the updates configuration?
answer: No. It is important to keep the Microsoft Connected Cache software up to date, especially when it comes to security issues. Microsoft has validated updates prior to releasing Microsoft releasing to Enterprises Connected Cache updates and will only release updates when it is necessary to keep customers secure or to ensure the continued successful operation of Connected Cache nodes for customers.
- question: How do I set up CLI?
answer: Please see [How to install the Azure CLI | Microsoft Learn](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-cli/install).
- question: How do I install MCC extension?
answer: Please see [Install the Microsoft Connected Cache extension](mcc-ent-install-extension.md).
- question: What do I do if I have to set up or change existing proxy?
answer: You can enable proxy and provide proxy information on Azure portal or use CLI. Don’t forget to re-run the provisioning script after making any proxy changes. Please see [Set up or change existing proxy](mcc-ent-proxy.md).
