Distribution Point - set custom timeout

Hello,

we have setup 2 DP in our JAMF. Both of these are pointing to the same file server. The only difference is that DP-1 is only configured using SMB and is set as Master DP.
DP-2 is configured using HTTPS and a fallback if DP-1 is not available.

Background for this setup:
Our fileserver is only reachable from internal network using SMB protocol. HTTP and HTTPS is handled with a reverse proxy.

To have as less traffic as possible we do not want to make the HTTPS Distribution point as primary/master. So this 2nd DP is only a fallback.

The question now is: is it possible to set a custom timeout to the DPs? So when a user executes a Self Service policy and the SMB DP isn't responding after 3 seconds, it automatically downloads from the fallback HTTP/HTTPS DP? The default timeout seems to be high.

Best regards
