Enterprise Vault proxy server configurations

Optionally, you can use an Enterprise Vault server as a proxy server for Enterprise Vault requests from Enterprise Vault Outlook Add-Ins when Outlook Anywhere is configured. The Enterprise Vault proxy server forwards Enterprise Vault requests to the Enterprise Vault server that hosts the archive. An Enterprise Vault proxy server is useful in the following situations:

Note that an Enterprise Vault proxy server can only be used to manage connections from Outlook Anywhere clients. It cannot be used for other types of connections, such as OWA.

The figure, Figure: Example Outlook Anywhere configuration using an Enterprise Vault proxy server, illustrates an Enterprise Vault proxy server in an Outlook Anywhere configuration. The Enterprise Vault server that is used as a proxy server can also host archives, if required. Alternatively, you can set up a minimal Enterprise Vault server to be used as a proxy server only.

Settings in the Enterprise Vault Exchange Desktop policy let you configure the behavior of the Enterprise Vault Outlook Add-Ins when Outlook is configured to use RPC over HTTP.

The Enterprise Vault client contacts Enterprise Vault as follows:

The Enterprise Vault proxy server connects to the Enterprise Vault server that hosts the archive using anonymous connections. For this reason you must configure support for anonymous connections on each Enterprise Vault server that the proxy server contacts.

In an Enterprise Vault cluster you need to configure each node in the cluster for anonymous connections.

Similarly, in building blocks configurations you may need to configure support for anonymous connections on the proxy server computer. This configuration is required for Virtual Vault users if a Storage Service can fail over to the Enterprise Vault proxy server computer.

Instructions for setting up an Enterprise Vault proxy server, and configuring support for anonymous connections are given in the following section:
