Trying to implement Exchange 2010

I'm not sure if you figured this out or not, but when you click options in OWA it sends you to the ECP virtual directory.

 

I'm still working my way through all of this stuff but basically this is where the internal/external URL's come into play.

 

We're planning on sending all clients through the LTM's so everything will be considered external. You have to go through and set all of the external URL's within Exchange 2010, so for example:

 

 

owa

 

internal: https://server1.mydomain.com/owa

 

external: https://owa.mydomain.com (LTM virtual server)

 

 

ecp

 

internal: https://server1.mydomain.com/owa

 

external: https://ecp.mydomain.com (LTM virtual server)

 

 

 

you get the idea I hope.

 

 

We initially had everything setup for SSL offloading and decided that we'd be more secure going without so we tried to disable SSL offloading and ran into all sorts of problems. I'm back to doing SSL offloading and I think I'm coming down the home stretch. I've got activesync, owa, outlookanywhere and autodiscover working.

 

 

If I can help anyone out let me know.

 

 

I'm mainly interested in finding some better health monitors.

 

 

Also, the deployment manual is riddled with problems. The default health monitor is garbage, It looks like it was written for IIS 6.0 and there is an Irule or two in there that doesn't work.
