Microsoft has released a blog detailing the work around for the post CU2 for ConfigMgr 20 12 SP1 problem while adding a Secondary site.  Microsoft is investigating but as a workaround here is what you can do to get around the issue.

 One way is to use a network location of the secondary install files.  The second method was created by one of the MVP and details changing out XML files from the initial Sp1 installation media.

Microsoft has publicly announced the availably of CU2 for ConfigMgr 2012 Sp1.

I will let you read the information for yourself but it fixes several issues for us.

CU1: Alternate port download for Windows update
CU2: Imaging over Alternate ports and BGB issue when using Custom Websites.

Like Cu1 you will need to have an update to the client pushed as well as an update to the Task Sequence for the client.

One thing I will need to test with this release is the need to repush the Boot.wim.  This would be necessary for the companies running over alternate ports.  It is also a good practice to create new boot media for your machines.

I hope to have this fully tested soon but none of what I have suggested is destructive to your enviroment.
