In this course, you examine the planning requirements for the implementation of messaging security and compliance in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 solution. You explore the various options for implementing security to meet the business and legal requirements of an organization. This helps prepare you for certification exam 70-238.
Course Objectives
This courseis intended for people with three or more years experience workingwith previous Exchange Server versions and experience implementingExchange Server2007. Most students will have managed enterprise-levelExchange Server organizations. Students are expected to be new toparticipating in designing Exchange Server 2007 deployments on the jobor to be planning to design Exchange Server 2007 deployments in the nearfuture. Students may have done some design for Exchange 2000 Server orExchange Server 2003 deployments, but want to learn how to designExchange Server 2007 environments. Students will also have experience indesigning and managing Active Directory directory services and networkinfrastructure deployments.
Prerequisites
Before attending this course, students must have:
•
Must understand hardware concepts. For example, what redundant array of independent disks (RAID) is, what a storage area network (SAN) is, processor options, memory requirements, how disk input/output (I/O) functions and the limitations of disk I/O, and storage options for Exchange server. The differences in addressable memory spaces between 32- and 64-bit architectures.
•
Must have extensive detailed knowledge of Active Directory concepts and design principles. For example, site replication, integrated authentication, schema extension, Domain Name System (DNS), group and organization unit structure and inheritance, etc….
•
Working experience with designing and implementing Active Directory in Windows Server 2003.
•
Must understand Exchange architecture. For example, the purpose of server roles, functions of specific server roles, how message routing and queuing works in Exchange, standard messaging protocols (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol [SMTP], Internet Message Access Protocol version 4rev1 [IMAP4], Post Office Protocol version 3 [POP3]), how Exchange replicates data stores, client access methods, and so on.
•
Working experience with Exchange 2000 Server or Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange Server 2007. For example, must have installed, maintained, and supported a production Exchange environment.
•
Must already know how to use:
•
Exchange System Manager
•
Exchange Best Practice Analyzer (ExBPA)
•
Microsoft Office Visio (to create infrastructure diagrams)
•
Familiarity and experience with a Windows scripting or command-line scripting.
