Do I remove IP or IP and SMTP in my bridgehead under Sites and Services.

Hi,

We have three Windows 2012 R2 Domain Controllers.  We had Microsoft assessed our environment and recommended to us to remove Bridgehead.  As per their comment:

"Bridgehead servers are domain controllers that have replication partners in other sites. The selection of bridgeheads is automatic by default. Manually defining preferred bridgeheads is generally not required, because it incurs additional administrative overhead, can reduce the inherent redundancy of Active Directory, and can easily result in replication failures due to invalid configurations. Designating a single bridgehead for a domain in a site that contains a single domain controller of that domain is redundant as that domain controller would have been the bridgehead anyway. It can also lead to future problems should additional domain controllers be deployed to the site and only one of them configured as a preferred bridgehead server."

My question is, do I only remove IP or both IP and SMTP? See pic. Thanks!
