What are the Planning Considerations of Hub Transport Server Role?

Hub Transport server role is a required role in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 organization that provides routing within a single organizational network by using the Active Directory directory service site. Hub Transport server role installed handles all mail flow inside the organization, apply transport rules, apply journal rules, and deliver messages to recipients’ mailboxes

We have to perform a Planning Consideration on

·  Topology for mail flow inside and outside the Exchange organization

·    Server capacity – determine how to perform performance monitor

·   Security – includes delegation of administrative roles and verification that IP connections are only enabled from authorized servers

·   Transport Features – determine the transport features that you will enable at the Hub Transport server and how they will be configured
