SYSTEM Center 2012 CONFIGURATION Manager clients can find available management points by using the management point that you specify during client deployment, Active Directory Domain Services, DNS, and WINS. Clients can connect to more than one management point in a SITE, ALWAYS preferring communication that uses HTTPS, when this is possible because the client and management point uses PKI CERTIFICATES.

There are some changes here since Configuration Manager 2007, which accommodate the change that clients can now communicate with more than one management point in site, and that you can have a mix of HTTPS and HTTP site system roles in the same site.
