Microsoft Exchange: What is it?• Microsoft Exchange Server is a calendaring and mail server developed by Microsoft
that runs exclusively on the Microsoft Windows Server product line.
• Exchange Server was initially Microsoft's internal mail server.
• Designed to fully integrate with Microsoft products:
- Outlook is preferred mail client - Must run on Microsoft Server - Must have Active Directory Server
• Exchange Server is licensed both in the forms of on-premises software and software-as-a-service. In the on-premises form, customer purchase client access licenses (CALs). In the software as a service form, Microsoft receives a monthly service fee instead (Office 365) If your office uses Outlook, you are using a version of Exchange.
Self Managed vs. Hosted Exchange
Cloud Hosted:A third party company has allowed you to create some emails on their Exchange Server. You have a limited web portal for management. You do NOT have EMC or EMS access, AND you do NOT have Active Directory access.
Self Managed (On-Premises):You have full control of the server. Full access to Exchange Management Console (EMC) OR Exchange Admin Center (ECP) and Shell (EMS), as well as Active Directory Users and Groups. Can be a physical server on premises, or a cloud hosted server.
Hosted Exchange != Providers
• Each hosted Exchange provider sets its own rules for what they will allow access to.
• Table at right shows who we have successfully synced with (or even tried)
vs.• Can be hosted or on premises• Software on premises licensed by
CAL (Client Access Licenses)• Hosted Exchange usually limits the
size of email boxes. The limits are set by the person administrating the Exchange Server, but can be set to as high as needed
• With Hosted Exchange, security features can often be added at a cost to the business
• On premises Exchange servers give the Admin more flexibility in terms of hardware, expansion and maintenance
• Can only be hosted (CloudBased)• Software as a Service (SAAS)
provided and paid by month subscription
• You do have access to Exchange Admin Center
• You do have Shell access• You do have Active Directory Access
with some limitations• Office 365 uses Exchange 2013. It is
the same exact thing for that one piece
Active Directory
• How Microsoft manages user accounts in a corporate environment
• Uses multiple Open Source technologies to accomplish this
• Can be used to:- Disable accounts - Set passwords- Enable startup scripts - Attach network drives - Set group permissions etc.
Regular Mailbox vs. Room Mailbox
Regular Mailbox: Typical user email. When the email account is created an Active Directory entry is created that is Enabled and has password set.
Room Mailbox: Also called a Resource Mailbox or Room Resource. This account creates an Active Directory entry but it is Disabled by default and has no password set. This account is only meant to process email requests that contain calendar information, and schedule the calendar.
Room Resource Default Behavior
• Delete meeting subject (Event Title)• Delete meeting comments (Event
Description) • Delete attachments• Delete privacy flag• Delete non-calendar data• Add organizers name to subject.
EventBoard Integration
What We Need:
• Valid EWS endpoint• Exact login as OWA• Search Specific Addresses
Setup GotchasExchange Setup: • SSL Certificate• Send connector
CloudSync: • Not inputting an EWS endpoint or using an
incomplete EWS endpoint. • Not using login name as opposed to email
address • Not understanding Default behavior • Trying to use the wrong version • Not setting up Room List (only for
Exchange 2010 versions)
Local Calendars: • Not enabling • Not understanding Default Behavior
Common Troubleshooting:
Exchange Specific: • Unable to send email to outside
domains• Outside domains cannot book a room
EventBoard Specific:• Can’t end event early• Unable to cancel meetings
