Re: MX - [WildPacket]



skip:

The tunnel to tunnel traffic will be encrypted within the Juniper routers.
The firewall/router team will take care of that for me.

Thanks for your response.

It sounds like from reading the original post that the networks are
connected
via VPN site to site tunnel, and if emails are going across the tunnel
then
why not use IPSEC to secure the communication between the two Exchange
servers?

Thank you again.

Just a thought will this process of rotating mail equally not cerate
any
duplicate mails?

There's not a lot of documentation that specifically talks about
multiple
smarthosts on a Connector, afaik.

Most Exchange documentation states that you can specify one or more
smart
hosts by name or IP address. When you specify multiple smart-host
definitions, the connector uses them in a rotating order so that the
smart
hosts forward email equally. This method provides a measure of fault
tolerance....

Thank you for the response gentlement.

Bharat:
When I define 4 IP address there, when the mail is sent, which mail
server
will receive the mail first, I know it works how the preference is
set
for
MX. In this specific case how does it work?

Is there a good article on how the mulitple hosts work?

advise please.

To add more than one IP: [x.x.x.x],[y.y.y.y]

In response to Bharat Suneja.

We want all the communication secure and go through a tunnel
between
us
and
that org.

Ok, lets say I add a new SMTP connector for that domain and
configure
TLS.
They have 4 mail servers. How do I add more than one IP address
in
the
option
for ...

"Forward all mail through this connector to the following smart
host".

I know it goes like this ... [192.1.1.] - I need to add 4 IPs -
How
do
I
add
the other three?

OR other way I was thinking is ...... in the option "Forward all
mail
through this connector to the following smart host". I add the
Ip
address
our VPN hardware box which is linked to the other orgs VPN box.
So
when
mail
comes to the exchange box it will send it teh connector and from
the
connector it goes to our VPN hardware and in the VPN hardware it
send
it
to
the mail servers IP.

Advise please.
