Outlook Anywhere
Outlook Anywhere was formerly known in previous versions of Exchange as RPC over HTTP. This
feature allows the full Outlook client to access Exchange securely through the Internet. It also works
seamlessly through firewalls.
The cmdlet used for Outlook Anywhere configuration is:
❑ Enable-OutlookAnywhere
The
Enable-OutlookAnywhere cmdlet is used to enable or disable this feature. It has the following
syntax:
Enable-OutlookAnywhere -ExternalAuthenticationMethod < Basic | Digest |
Ntlm | Fba | WindowsIntegrated | Misconfigured > -ExternalHostname
< Hostname > -SSLOffloading < $true | $false > [-DomainController < Fqdn > ]
[-Server < ServerIdParameter > ] [-TemplateInstance < PSObject > ]
[ < CommonParameters > ]
There is not a lot of configuration needed to enable Outlook Anywhere. There are four parameters to
configure: the external name, the authentication type, the servers enabled for Outlook Anywhere, and
whether or not an SSL will be offloaded. All the prerequisites for enabling RPC over HTTP must be
configured before running
Enable-OutlookAnywhere .
