Wow, you have almost no clue what you are talking about yet are trying to speak like you have the answers.

First, we aren't talking about protocols. We are talking about the labels in a GUI tool.

Second, intersite replication is done through RPC over IP. How you could mess that up I have no clue because it has been documented that way for over 6 years. Even if you got all of your training through a "make an MCSE today" program you should have learned about it. The difference between RPC replication within a site and between sites is three primary items. The first is the replication topology switches from a ring (intersite) to a spanning tree (intrasite); this is not configurable. The second is that change notification is not used by default in intersite replication; this is configurable. The third is that compression is used by default in intersite replication; this is configurable.

Third, SMTP replication is generally not used nor recommended. MSFT only allows the two forest NCs and R-O NCs to replicate through SMTP, all other replication MUST occur over RPC connections.

The rest of your post is just so far out there I am not even going to respond to other than I recommend people NOT listen to what you have to say.

RPC protocol is NOT as same as SMTP & IP protocol.

RPC is used for intra-site replication protocol and it is widely used
in MAPI clients like MS outlook.
SMTP & IP is used as inter-site replication protocol.

Since SMTP is somewhat different from IP and RPC, the data for
replication will be converted as mail format and it is replicated to
its remote bridgehead server, one advantage is there for SMTP is that
OFFLINE replication is also done in SMTP as the source server is not
there and SMTP datas are in queue for replication.


By default RPC protocol is enabled for replication in intra-site
replication. You have to dedicate any one of protocols like SMTP or IP
for inter-site replication and have to set its time frequency for
replication as per your WAN bandwidth.

You can assingh these inter-site transport protocol to a bridgehead
server within in your site for replication.

Hope this information is usefull for you!!

Cheers
