How-to: Setting up Exact Exchange Integrator in Exact Lightweight Integration Server (ELIS)
Introduction
This document describes the configuration
steps required to set up the synchronization between Microsoft Exchange and Exact Synergy Enterprise in ELIS. For more information on the supported operating
systems for the Microsoft Exchange server and the system requirements for Exact
Synergy Enterprise, see Exchange Server Supportability Matrix at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff728623(v=exchg.150).aspx and Hardware and software requirements for Exact Synergy
Enterprise.
Note that the current version of Exact Exchange Integration in ELIS supports the use of the two different domains (the active directory domain and the Exchange Online email domain) for Exact Synergy Enterprise and Exact Exchange Integration, and is only applicable for Microsoft Exchange Online. The following are the examples of the related domains:
- Active directory domain: ABC (ABC\username)
- Exchange Online email domain: ABCCorp.com (John.Smith@ABCCorp.com)
