Users Contacts

Groups

Transporter Provides Mail Migration & Mail Coexistence

functionality
On-Premise Exchange 2000 & Above Hosted POP3/IMAP4 Exchange 2007

During Migration to the Cloud, there will likely be a period of Co-existence where some users are onpremises, some in the Cloud
During coexistence mail will be directed to local Exchange topology or Microsoft

Online using unique SMTP Addresses

Local Deployment (Companyx.Com)

Active Directory Exchange Servers

Microsoft Online
SMTP Mailflow for @Companyx.com
Active Directory Exchange Servers

SMTP Mailflow for @Companyx.MicrosoftOnline.Com *Over TLS

Incoming emails for user@Companyx.com will continue to be routed to Local Depl Users migrated to MSO fully will have companyx.microsoftonline.com domain name, with alias of companyx.com. They can send as user@companyx.com. Incoming emails will ALWAYS be routed to Local Deployment (with forwarders to MSO) until all users migrated to MSO (via MX Record setting)

 Online Domain Management Considerations Domain Management Must create and verify online domains to match on-premise domains Directory Synchronization (Optional) Active Directory 2000 or newer is required to synchronize existing Active Directory Users, Contacts, and Groups Active Directory User

Matched using domain-verified MAIL and/or proxy address Used to create Microsoft Online UPN login (users) and SMTP addresses for users

 Synchronization Process Users, Contacts, and Groups:

Users & Groups DirSync Domain Verified Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)/MAIL addresses used as UPN/Email address Note: If proxyAddresses or MAIL attribute does not match a verified domain @MSOL.com is used as UPN/Email address Contacts [User Experience Issue] DirSync DirSynchd Contacts use the same User/Group logic during creation, as listed above Note: On-Premise TargetAddress (address sent to) is maintained in Online Contact object, but MSOL Email address is displayed

 Directory Synchronization (Optional) Member of domain Operating System x86

Windows Server 2003 Windows Server 2008

Software .NET Framework 2.0 Windows PowerShell 1.0

Creates and stores forest objects for synchronization into

MSONLINE SQL Express MSDE database (25k maximum object limit) Downloaded from the Microsoft Online Admin Center (MOAC) What it does:
MIIS_Service account logged in locally You'll need to re-login to domain 'constoso.com' as a member

and now you will have MIIS_Service logged into as a local account SQL Server instance created (MSONLINE)

 Configuration Enablement

Enable Directory Synchronization via Microsoft Online Services Administration Center (MOAC)

Installation Permissions: On-Premise Local Machine

Member of local Administrators group Member of Enterprise Administrator account MSOL_AD_Sync service account created in users container within the root forests domain Used to query on-premise Active Directory for user, contact, and group objects for injection into the Business Productivity Online Suite company environment
