Exchange 2013 edge

Hi!
Today we have a site with Exchange 2013 multi-role servers. On our DMZ we have 2 exchange 2010 edge servers. We are planning to install 2 new Exchange 2013 edge servers that will replace the once currently installed. When the new servers are installed and
we have created the edge subscription, will all edge servers (2010 and 2013) be used until we remove the old ones?
Regards,
UC

yes.

Exchange 2013 Edge on Web server

I just purchased 2 new servers. Both will be running Windows Standard 2012 R2. One will be used to run Exchange 2013 HUB/CAS (LAN) and the other will be a Web server (DMZ) hosting various internal websites (IIS/PHP). Instead of having a 3rd older server
run Exchange 2013 Edge, I was thinking on installing it on the new Web server. Any disadvantages or no-nos?
Thanks

Hi,
In theory, there is no conflictions. But the performance of the server is hard to know.

RBL not working on Exchange 2013 Edge Transport

Single multi-role server with a couple of mailboxes, recently added an Edge Transport server. After configuring the Edge Subscribtion I added sen.spamhaus.org as a RBL Provider:
Add-IPBlockListProvider -Name Spamhaus -LookupDomain zen.spamhaus.org
This is not working. A lot of spam is still entering Exchange and the http://www.crynwr.com/spam/ test failed.
Both servers run Exchange 2013 CU5.

Deploy Exchange 2013 Edge Transport Server for multi-site environment

Hi,
I have a multi-site Exchange 2013 environment. The configurations are as below.
Active Directory Sites and Exchange Servers.
SiteA - EXMB1 & EXCAS1
SiteB - EXMB2 & EXCAS2
SiteC - EXMB3 & EXCAS3
All sites are connected via VPN. (Good speed. No latency issues)
All the three Mailbox Servers are in DAG. Only one mailbox database. All servers running Exchange 2013.
I am planning to deploy Edge Servers in the infrastructure (I am doing it for the first time). Normally, it will be in DMZ.
Now, I can deploy 2 Edge Servers for reliability.
Question.
1. Can I deploy 2 Edge Servers and create subscription to all the mailbox server in 3 different site? Or, is it like one edge server can make subscription to only mailbox servers in one Active Directory Site? I am not sure about this and could not find much
information from TechNet.
One Edge Server can make subscription to all 3 mailbox server in 3 sites. Similarly, I can make the subscriptions in the second edge server as well. Configure 2 external MX records with the same priority so that there will be some load balancing.
Also, in such a case if the mailbox database become active from a different site, I need not make any new changes to the Edge Servers right?
2. If the first way is not correct, I will have to deploy 1 Edge Server each for each of the Active Directory Site. (In DMZ only, not in domain)
Make Edge Subscription to the mailbox server in corresponding site.
Make 1 MX record and point it to the Edge Server which is subscribed to the Mailbox Server from which the Database is Active. The problem is, every time will have to change the DNS record when ever the database copy is activated from a different mailbox
server. And the issues with propagation.. delay..
I am not sure which of the above 2 ways will work. Appreciate suggestions from anyone who have previous experience with similar infrastructure.
Thanks in advance. :)

Hi
One or more Edge Transport servers can be subscribed to a single Active Directory site. However, an Edge Transport server can't be subscribed to more than one Active Directory site. If you have more than one Edge Transport server deployed, each server can be
subscribed to a different Active Directory site. Each Edge Transport server requires an individual Edge Subscription.
A subscribed Edge Transport server is associated with a particular Active Directory site. If more than one Mailbox server exists in the site, any of them can replicate data to the subscribed Edge Transport servers.
I don't think there is a solution to subscribe edge servers for more than 1 site. Edge Servers can be scoped only to one site.

Exchange 2013 Edge Transport install fails

I'm trying to install the Edge Transport for Exchange 2013 but it gets to step 7 of 9:
then give's the following error
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();

Then in event viewer I have the following two events.

Error: Error:

I've rebuilt the server but since it has something to do with the GUID I assumed it wouldn't work but I was grasping at straws and it didn't fix the issue.
I can run the setup again and it does finish but it doesn't show up in the list of servers in the ecp management. I've yet to find a solution on this issue if anyone has a suggestion or two it would be greatly appreciated.

How to add exceptions for Sender Filtering in Exchange 2013 Edge

hi everyone.
got a bit of a problem.
I've installed 2 exchange 2013 servers. one for Mailbox-CAS (Hub) & one as Edge Server.
I've configured Blocked domains for blocking my users from sending emails to public mail servers such as Hotmail,google & yahoo and I've set up some users as exceptions (such as CEO & managers).
I wanna configure my Edge server to block inbound email from such servers as well & have to set some exclusions.
as I searched online, the command would be "set-senderfilterconfig -blockeddomainsandsubdomains"
but I can't use -Bypassed switch as I do in Content Filtering.
now my question is am I using the right method (commands & stuff) to reach my goal?
also how I set some users as exceptions?
thanks in advance

Hi,
I find this article for your reference:
Understanding Anti-Spam and Antivirus Mail Flow
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997242.aspx#Content
If you want to block inbound email, please try to configure IP Block list, IP Block List providers, blocked domain or blocked sender.
If you want to block outbound email, please try to configure Recipient Filtering, like Recipient Block list.
More details to check the article above.

Exchange 2013 Edge subscription

I have Exchange 2013 installed using a second site for resilience.
I am configuring Exch 2013 Edge servers at both locations.
Lets say Edge01 and Edge02 are in Santa Fe along with CAS and Mailbox servers,
Edge03 and Edge04 are in Minneapolis along with associated CAS and MB servers.
Santa Fe and Minneapolis are in different AD Sites.
For each edge server, I will need to create a subscription for each location, right?
Edge01 will require a subscription for Santa Fe and a separate subscription for Minneapolis.
And the same would go for each edge server.
Am I correct?
Tom

One or more Edge Transport servers can be subscribed to a single Active Directory site. However, an Edge Transport server can't be subscribed

Exchange 2013 Edge Transport Replacement

Hi all,
I have a quick question regarding a new 2013 Edge Transport that I need to move to a physical machine.
It currently resides on a VM and I would like to decommission this machine, remove the edge subscription and redeploy the same configuration on a physical box.
Do you see any issues using the same name and IP with the new box? I know it says it is not supported to rename the edge, but If I remove it completely and redeploy?

Hi Scott4768,
Based on my experience, you should uninstall the EDGE server which on a VM and then re-install it on a physical box, and you could use the same IP and name.
In simple terms, the steps are following:
1. Remove-EdgeSubscription
2. uninstall EDGE server
3. re-install EDGE server on a physical box
4. Create New-EdgeSubscription
Best regards,
Eric

Edge Transport Server - Exchange 2013 coexistence Exchange 2007

Hi Exchange-Gurus,
We have one Exchange Org.
sub AD Domain1: A.domain.com (with Exchange 2007 SP3 R10)
sub AD Domain2: B.domain.com (with Exchange 2013 CU6); DMZ contains Exchange Transport Server - Exchange 2013
Is it possible to install within the DMZ of AD Domain1 a Edge Transport Server - Exchange 2013?
Thanks.
Guitarman

Hi Guitar,
Thank you for your question.
Is it possible to install within the DMZ of AD Domain1
an Edge Transport Server - Exchange 2013?
A: Yes, we could create an Exchange 2013 Edge server on the DMZ of AD domain1.
Notice: Before we create an EdgeSync Subscription between an Exchange 2007 Hub Transport server and an Exchange 2013 SP1 Edge Transport server, we need to install Exchange 2007 SP3
Update Rollup 13 or later on the Exchange 2007 Hub Transport server.
We could refer to the following link:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996719(v=exchg.150).aspx
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

Exchange SP1 Edge Transport Install Error

Hi everyone,
I've successfully installed multiple Mailbox and CAS 2013 SP1 servers into an existing Exchange 2010 environment.

Any ideas what could be causing this? I haven't been able to find anything of significance while searching around...

Exchange 2013 SP1 EDGE role content filtering ?

Hello,
Have Exchange 2013 SP1 with CU5 with antispam enabled on mailbox role server. And i wonder if i deploy 2013 Edge role, will i get more granular content filter control, like there is in Office 365? For example: i want to treat empty messages as not
spam.
I have read that control of Edge server is done ONLY by powershell. So if edge role is deployed, still there is no content filter control in ECP (like in office365) ??

Hi,
The Content Filter agent assigns a spam confidence level (SCL) rating to each message. The SCL rating is a number between 0 and 9. A higher SCL rating indicates that a message is more likely to be spam.
Based on my knowledge, I'm afraid we can't filter the empty messages and treat them as not spam.
Here is an article about content filtering in Exchange 2013 for your reference.

Some help with migrating exchange 2010 to exchange 2013 + installing another exchange 2010 to be edge-forefront-proxy server

Hi guys (and girls)!
Hear me up. The idea is like this:
A friend of mine has currently Exchange 2010 SP3 in his environment with Forefront Protection installed on it. As we all know Forefront Protection is discontinued in Exchange 2013 environment because Exchange 2013 on-premisses is using integrated tool for
doing that, but a friend of mine would really like to stick with Forefront Protection because it is "much better tool" then integrated stuff in 2013.
Ok, so here's the idea. Exchange 2010 SP3 with Forefront is installed on Phisical machine (so, not virtualized) on 2008 r2 std OS. We decided to move to Exchange 2013 because we wanted to achieve DAG on Exchange 2010 but we realized that is not possible
because 2008 R2 STD OS does not support failover-clustering functionality, but you are able to achieve that on newer OS for example 2012? Ok, so we bought another server, where we are planing to install Vmware Esxi and put two virtual machines on it.
One Will be 2012 r2 STD OS with Exchange 2013 on it, the other Will be 2008 r2 STD with Exchange 2010 Edge role + Forefront on it. We are planing to move Exchange 2010 production server to virtual machine Exchange 2013, and newly virtual machine
with Exchange 2010 edge server will only be "a kind of Proxy server with Forefront functionality". What concers me?
Should we install Exchange 2010 edge transport 1st, or Exchange 2013? I think I have read somewhere after you put Exchange 2013 in production you are "unable" to install any previous Exchange versions is that true?
One more question about what happens after you install another Exchange 2010 with Edge role in production enviroment? Does installation effects a production enviroment, let's say we do just a clean installation of Exchange + ran updates?
Which roles do you need to install on Exchange 2010 to achive Edge role? Do you need to have all the roles install for having Edge server (mailbox, hub,cas?).

Should we install Exchange 2010 edge transport 1st, or Exchange 2013? I think I have read somewhere after you put Exchange 2013 in production you are "unable" to install any previous Exchange versions is that true?
already answered by PS CL above
One more question about what happens after you install another Exchange 2010 with Edge role in production enviroment? Does installation effects a production enviroment, let's say we do just a clean installation of Exchange + ran updates?
No it does not as long you don't make any changes on send/receive connector and do the EdgeSubscription. As soon as you do the Edge subscription there will be send/receive connector created, so pay attention how to setup the Edge Server.
Which roles do you need to install on Exchange 2010 to achive Edge role? Do you need to have all the roles install for having Edge server (mailbox, hub,cas?).
Just install the Edge Transport Server and make sure you install ADLDS services.
as you have mentioned you are doing to install both Mailbox and Edge server on the same VMware - it is a single point of failure.

Exchange 2013 SP1 - Edge Tranport Role

Hi.
When Exchange 2013 was released only CAS & Mailbox roles where available. Hub & Edge Transport server roles were discontinued.
Now with Exchange 2013 SP1, the edge transport role has came back.
Question:
1. Can I deploy a new Exchange 2013 Infrastructure without the Edge Transport Role. This will be a fresh deployment.
I plan to have a UTM with spam blocking at the perimeter instead of the Edge Server?
2. will there any be problems without an Edge Transport ?
Thanks,
Paul

Hi ,
Please find the below mentioned points .
1. Can I deploy a new Exchange 2013 Infrastructure without the Edge Transport Role. This will be a fresh deployment.
I plan to have a UTM with spam blocking at the perimeter instead of the Edge Server?
Answer :
Just ensure that the product is having all the features as you need on your side .There is not necessary to have a an edge server in all the exchange environment's. Moreover Gateway and anti spam products will differ as per the company requirements.
2. will there any be problems without an Edge Transport ?
Answer :
If you are having any one the anti spamming solution to have all the emails scanned before it reaches the exchange server then it will be good .
Just ensure that the anti spamming product what you are going to use is mainly doing the reverse dns lookup
and spf look up .With the help of that we can able to avoid large no of forged emails.

First Exchange 2013 server in 2010 Deployment - 2010 edge is routing SOME inbound mail to new server where it fails.

I have a Barracuda filter receiving all inbound internet mail which delivers to the edge server (both in DMZ). I have one 2010 edge server and one 2010 ht,cas,mailbox server. I have added a 2013 server and started working
on configuring virtual directories. This is a far as I have gotten. Goal is once new box is working to move all mailboxes to 2013 server and remove 2010 mail box server and keep Barracuda and 2010 edge server to pass mail to the 2013 box.
My issue is the edge server is already passing inbound internet mail to the new 2013 server. I see the mail being accepted by the Barracuda and message tracking on the edge shows it as delivered to the new 2013 server, but mailbox
users never receive.
Is my solution to simply create a new send connector from the 2013 server to the 2010 box or could this be something else?
And why is it delivering to a server with now mailboxes on it yet?
Thank you for any help
dean

Hello Dean,
I understand that the message tracking log indicates the email delivered to Exchange 2013 server. Please check the message tracking log on both Exchange 2013 server and Exchange 2010 server.
How about the result? Have you created new 2013 mailbox and tested if it works?
As for the send connector, actually an intra-org send connector will be involved for internal mail flow within an organization. So there is no need to create another send connector.
In addition, I’d like to share you an article about Edge Subscriptions:
