Overview/Description
Exchange Server 2013 offers a variety of improvements and some new features for planning and implementing site resiliency solutions. In this course, you'll learn how to design, deploy, and manage a site-resilient Client Access Server (CAS) solution which includes planning namespaces and URLs, performing steps for a site rollover, and plan certificate requirements for site failovers. You will also learn to design, deploy, and manage site resilience for transport, which includes learning how to configure MX records for failover scenarios, send/receive connectors for site resilience, manage resubmission and reroute queues, as well as transport failover. This course is one of a series in the SkillSoft learning path that covers the objectives for the Advanced Solutions of Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 (70-342) exam.

Target Audience
This learning path is targeted at senior Microsoft Exchange administrators who plan and manage multi-site enterprise class deployments of Exchange servers. It is also designed for individuals who seek professional distinction through the Exchange 2013 MSCE. This is done by completing the Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate (MCSA) - Office 365 certification and then taking the 70-341 - Core Solutions of Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 exam and the 70-342 - Advanced Solutions of Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 exam.
