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.
