Universal Group Membership Caching
How to enable Universal Group Membership Caching (UGMC) on a remote AD site so user logons no longer have to traverse a slow WAN to a Global Catalog. Walks the GUI three-click path (Sites and Services > site > NTDS Site Settings > Properties > Enable UGMC) with the actual screenshots, the Set-ADObject PowerShell equivalent (one bit on the NTDS Site Settings options attribute, 0x20), the design choice between UGMC and a local Global Catalog, the 8-hour cache refresh behaviour, and the common pitfalls (right-clicking the wrong node, first-logon needs the GC, stale cache after Universal Group changes).
