New version of Exchange Remote Connectivity Analyzer
Posted on October 19th, 2009 by Coen Verbree in Exchange 2007, Exchange 2010, Microsoft, tags: Exchange 2007, Exchange 2010
The guys from the MS Exchange Team announced a new release of the remote connectivity analyzer. This webbased tool can help you troubleshooting connectivity problems like Active Sync and RPC / HTTP (Outlook Anywhere).
New/Updated Features:
- Updated user interface
- New CAPTCHA implementation. (This is the hard to read words that make you prove you are a human)
- No more ‘Beta’ label
- Additional tests
- Exchange Web Services – This allows you to perform connectivity testing for Exchange Web Services client such as Entourage. Developers can also use the Service Account Verification test to ensure things are configured and working properly for access with an alternate account or ExchangeImpersonation.
- Outbound SMTP – Performs Reverse DNS testing, DNS RBL Checks, and SenderID validation against a provided “outbound” IP address
- Updated the Outlook Anywhere test logic to work with Exchange 2010
- Added a link in the footer to the Remote Connectivity Analyzer TechNet forum
- Added a password confirmation text box to ensure the proper password was entered before running a test. This will reduce the number of tests that fail simply due to a typo in the password.
