Exchange Server 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016 URL configuration

Posted on by damian
Spread the love

I had previously written a script to handle this and found it a bit lacking. This is a brand new script written from scratch and it will handle Exchange 2007, 2010, 2013 and 2016. As of version 1.1, it will only run locally. I will add a remote capability for same level and mixed level environments in the next version. Will need to do some testing so it might not be out for another week or two.
The Script
Notice that because this script runs against multiple versions of Exchange. I attempt to cover the three major revisions of Exchange – Exchange 2007, Exchange 2010-2013 (pre MAPI), Exchange 2013/2016. The last category may be split depending. 
<#  
.SYNOPSIS
   	Configured the Exchange Virtual Directory URLs for client access.

.DESCRIPTION  
    This script will configure Exchange URLs based on the version of the Exchange Server the script is run against.

.NOTES  
    Version      		: 1.1
    Change Log			: 1.1 - Tweaks to the look, operation and correct some syntax errors after testing on 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016

Each set of code is different and purposely so because Exchange 2007 does not have certain features that 2010 does and 2013 has features that 2010 does not. The script will detect which version of Exchange is on the local server and use the appropriate menu to drive the configuration.
Operation
When the script is started it starts with the first step and an explanation of what is to be accomplished:
URL-01
From this menu Internal and External URL options can be configured or the two URLs can be set the same:
URL-02
Then another notice about the next step:
URL-03
From this menu all URLs can be configured, or individual ones, as well as Outlook Anywhere as well as the AutoDiscover URI.
URL-04
Once this step completes, you can choose to verify the settings or exit the script:
URL-05
Other Menus
There are two other menus that appear if you use a different version of Exchange. The reason the above is for Exchange 2013 SP1+ is because this is when MAPI over HTTP was added to Exchange.

    1. No, its not required. It just makes it more uniform when connecting to an Exchange server. Also, if the FQDN is load-balanced, this will allow you to connect to PowerShell via the FQDN and also have a SSL connection match the certificate name on the server.
