********************************************************************
Contoso, Ltd., and Fabnkam, Inc., are partner companies.
Each company has an Exchange Server 2013 organization in
a Datacenter that is connected to the Internet.
All of the Exchange Servers in both of the organizations have
the Client Access Server Role and the Mailbox Role installed.
The data centers connect to each other by using a redundant High-Speed WAN link.
The following Mail Exchanger (MX) Records are configured:
Contoso.com MX 10 mail.contoso.com
Fabrikam.com MX 10 mail.fabrikam.com
********************************************************************
You need to recommend a solution for Inbound Mail Flow.
The solution must meet the following requirements:
Users in both companies must receive email from theInternet
if either of the Internet links fails.
Mail from the Internet to contoso.com must be received by mail.contoso.com
if the Internet link at the Contoso Datacenter is available.
Mail from the Internet to fabrikam.com must be received by mail.fabrikam.com
if the Internet link at the Fabrikam Datacenter is available.
Which two actions should you recommend?
(Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
A. Create the following DNS Records:
Contoso.com MX 20 mail.fabrikam.com Fabrikam.com MX20 mail.contoso.com
B. Create the following DNS Records:
Contoso.com MX 10 mail.fabrikam.com Fabrikam.com MX10 mail.contoso.com
C. For each Organization, configure an Internal Relay Domain and a Send Connector.
D. For each Organization, configure an External Relay Domain and a Receive Connector.
E. Create the following DNS records:
Contoso.com MX 5 mail.fabrikam.com Fabrikam.com MX 5 mail.contoso.com
Answer: AC
Shouldn’t this be A & D as they’re separate exchange organisations ?
100% correct answer is A, D
A: Use a priority above 10.
D: “Each company has an Exchange Server 2013 organization”. We therefore need to configure an External relay. An Internal relay would be used if the two SMTP domains were in the same Exchange organization. We also need to configure a Receive connector in each organization to allow the organization to receive email destined for the other organization.
