Exchange Discovery Task Wizard - Exchange Servers (local)

Administrator Help | Forcepoint DLP | Version 8.8.2

Use the Exchange Servers (local) page of the Exchange discovery task wizard to provide connection information.

Before you begin, define a service account for Exchange discovery scanning. Grant the account one of the following roles. This is necessary so that Data Security can discover messages and display results.

Exchange Full Administrator

Exchange Administrator

Exchange View Only Administrator

Do one of the following:

Select Auto-discovered to perform discovery on the Exchange servers that were automatically detected by the Forcepoint DLP system. Click See list to view the auto-discovered servers.

Select Custom to explicitly specify Exchange servers to scan.

Use this option if Forcepoint DLP did not find one or more servers when it tried to calculate which Exchange servers host each mailbox and public folders.

Enter the hostname or IP address of each additional server and click Add.

Enter the User name and Password for an administrator account with access to the Exchange servers.

Optionally, enter the Domain for the administrator account.

Select Connect using secure HTTP to have Forcepoint DLP to connect to the Exchange server using HTTPS and SSL.

Not all Exchange servers are set up for HTTPS. By default, Exchange 2003 is configured for HTTP and Exchange 2007 and 2013 are configured for HTTPS. Check the settings on your Exchange server before selecting this option.

Click Test Connection to test the connection to the Exchange server. If the test fails, verify the connection credentials. A public folder mailbox and a public folder on the Exchange server are required for the test connection to pass.

Click Next to continue with Exchange Discovery Task Wizard - Mailboxes.
