Configuring and Testing Access to the Exchange Server

Access between the SonicWALL CDP appliance and the Exchange server where the user mailboxes reside can be configured to require authentication credentials or not. When you add an application object for a user mailbox backup, you can choose to add authentication credentials if required by the Exchange server. In either case, you can use the Authentication dialog box to test the connection between the SonicWALL CDP appliance and the Exchange server.

Note If no authentication credentials are entered, the actual backup process uses the local SYSTEM account to access the Microsoft Exchange database.
