7. Edge Server Role

8. Lync Server Edge scenarios External User Access Lync clients can transparently connect to the Lync Server deployment over the public Internet PIC Connecting with public IM providers Federation Federation with other Enterprises IM&P only, or All modalities A/V and Application Sharing

9. Edge Server Role Requirements General Requirements 64-bit Windows 2008, Windows 2008 R2 Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 Windows PowerShell v2 Cannot be collocated with any other Microsoft Lync Server role Virtualization is supported (Windows 2008 R2 OS!) Server role PhysicalVirtual CPUMemoryNumber of users supported CPUMemoryNumber of users supported Edge Server 8 cores16 GB15,0004 cores5 GB7,500

10. Edge Server Roles Access Edge = handles all SIP traffic crossing the corporate firewall Web Conferencing Edge = proxies PSOM (Persistant Shared Object Model) traffic between the Web Conferencing Server and external clients Audio/Video Edge = provides a single trusted connection point through which audio and video traffic enters and exits your network

11. 1 IP, 2 IP, 3 IP, 4 IP,... ? Edge Server Role

12. A Few Networking Lync Facts Lync Server 2010 supports only IPv4 It does niet support IPv6 Can function in a network with dual IP stack enabled Two network adapters for each Edge Server are required: one for the internal-facing interface one for the external-facing interface Important: The internal and external subnets must not be routable to each other.

13. Single IP address Edge External edge.contoso.com 131.107.155.10 SIP: 5061 Web Conf: 444 A/V Conf: 443, 3478 Internal edge-int.contoso.com 172.25.33.10 SIP: 5061 Web Conf: 8057 A/V Conf: 443, 3478

14. Multiple IP address Edge Edge Server External SIP access.contoso.com 131.107.155.10 443, 5061 Internal edge-int.contoso.com 172.25.33.10 SIP: 5061 Web Conf: 8057 A/V Conf: 443, 3478 External Web Conf External AV webcon.contoso.com 131.107.155.20 443 av.contoso.com 131.107.155.30 443, 3478

15. Edge using NAT IP addresses External SIP IP1 Int External Web Conf External AV IP2 IP3 Public IP space IP2’ IP1’ IP3’ Client Clients connect to IP for A/V traffic Translated AV IP must be configured in Lync Server Lync Server does not need to know translated SIP and Web Conf IP

16. DNS Load Balanced Edge Public IP space Client Client can retrieve and handle multiple IP addresses and can fail over DNS server returns randomized IP address DNS A records access.contoso.com IP1 and IP4 webcon.contoso.com IP2 and IP5 av.contoso.com IP3 and IP6

17. DNS Load Balanced Edge using NAT Public IP space DNS A records access.contoso.com IP1’ and IP4’ webcon.contoso.com IP2’ and IP5’ av.contoso.com IP3’ and IP6’ IP2’ IP3’ IP4’ IP5’ IP6’ Translated AV IP addresses must be configured in Lync Server individually IP3 to IP3’ IP6 to IP6’

18. Hardware Load Balanced Edge Public IP space DNS A records access.contoso.com VIP1 webcon.contoso.com VIP2 av.contoso.com VIP3 VIP1 VIP2 VIP3 Initial AV connection requires will land on VIP and gets forwarded. However clients will connect to Edge directly (UDP) TCP traffic continues to use VIP NAT and HLB is not possible

19. INSTALLATION Edge Server Role

51. CERTIFICATE REQUIREMENTS Edge Server Role

52. Certificate Requirements Edge Server Role A single public certificate is supported in Lync for Access Edge external interface Web conferencing Edge external interface A/V Authentication Edge internal interface Edge internal interface Can be issued by an internal CA Subject name is typically the Edge internal interface FQDN or HWLB VIP No subject alternative names required

53. Requirements External Certificate Issued by an approved public CA (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=202834) If Edge pool, same cert on every Edge, must be exportable Subject Name = Access Edge FQDN or HWLB VIP(Not required, but recommended (previous versions) ) Subject Alternative Names Access Edge external interface or HWLB VIP Web Conferencing Edge external interface or HWLB VIP Any SIP doman FQDN (for auto-discovery, federation)

64. DNS REQUIREMENTS Edge Server Role

65. DNS Requirements DNS Entries External DNS lookups by remote users and federated partners Entries for DNS lookups for use by the Edge Servers within the perimeter network Internal DNS entries for lookups by the internal clients and servers running Lync Server 2010 Edge Server requires DNS Suffix

66. Need client auto configuration? Default SIP domain FQDN = AD domain FQDN Use GPOs or configure clients manually You are not using split-brain DNS Internal DNS _sipinternaltls._tcp. sip. External DNS _sip._tls. You are not using split-brain DNS Internal DNS _sipinternaltls._tcp. sip. External DNS _sip._tls. You are using split-brain DNS Internal DNS _sipinternaltls._tcp. External DNS _sip._tls. You are using split-brain DNS Internal DNS _sipinternaltls._tcp. External DNS _sip._tls. YES NO

67. Is Federation required? Internal DNS A Record internal interface External DNS A Record external interfaces Internal DNS A Record internal interface External DNS A Record external interfaces External DNS _sipfederationtls._tcp. External DNS _sipfederationtls._tcp. NO YES

68. DNS Records for External Devices TypeValueNote SRV Edge Server: _sipexternal._tls., and _sipexternaltls. Allows external devices to connect by using SIP over TLS to the Registrar internally. A Reverse proxy FQDN:. Allows external devices to connect by using TLS over HTTP to the Device Update Web service.

69. REVERSE PROXY & DIRECTOR Edge Server Role

70. Reverse Proxy and Director Internal Network Director Remote Clients Federated Clients Anonymous Clients Front End Perimeter Network Internet Edge Server Reverse Proxy

71. Reverse Proxy and external access (1) Forwards External HTTPS and HTTP traffic to Front End and Director Pool External user access to: Meeting content for meetings (HTTPS) Expand and display of distribution groups (HTTPS) Downloadable files from the Address Book Service (HTTPS) The Lync Web App client (HTTPS) The Dial-In Conferencing Settings web page (HTTPS) Location Information Service (HTTPS) Device Update Service and obtain updates (HTTP)

72. Reverse Proxy and external access (2) Simple URL forward to Director (recommended) Forwarding rule for Simple URL to a single Director (or Pool); port 443 Reverse Proxy certificate’s SAN to contain base FQDN of each Simple URL Web External Pool traffic forwarded to pools by Reverse Proxy Web External Pool traffic forwarded to pools by Reverse Proxy Reverse Proxy requires a forwarding rule each Web External FQDN (Front End Pool and Director); port 443 Reverse Proxy requires a forwarding rule each Web External FQDN (Front End Pool and Director); port 443 If external Phone Devices are implemented, Reverse Proxy rule for port 80 is required If external Phone Devices are implemented, Reverse Proxy rule for port 80 is required Front End Pool and Director) Reverse Proxy certificate’s SAN to contain base FQDN of all configured Web external Pools (Front End Pool and Director)

73. RECAP DNS VS HW LOAD BALANCING Edge Server Role

74. DNS vs. Hardware Load Balancing DNS LBHLB Public IP addresses required Each Server x 3(Each Server+1 VIP) x 3 Failover SupportNo, Delayed Failover* for: Exchange UM (remote user) PIC Federation of older version of OCS Yes, instant Failover for: Exchange UM (remote user) PIC Federation of older version of OCS NATing of IP addresses (Edge Server) SupportedNot supported * Delayed Failover: DNS TTL period

75. XMPP Edge Server Role

76. Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) Gateway Features provided Add and delete each other as contacts Publish Presence and subscribe for each other’s Presence Engage in one-to-one conversations Three scenarios Public federation with hosted network Federation between two organizations On-premises deployment with Jabber

77. XMPP Gateway

78. MANAGE & CONTROL REMOTE ACCESS Edge Server Role

79. Manage & Control Remote Access To support external user access, you must do both of the following: Enable support for external user access to your organization Configure and assign one or more policies to support external user access Policies External user access policies Conferencing policies

92. CLIENT COMMUNICATIONS Edge Server Role

93. IM And Presence Workload

94. Step 1. Client resolves DNS SRV record _sip._tls. to Edge Server

95. Access Edge – SIP/TLS: 443 Step 2. Client connects to Edge Server

96. Access Edge – SIP/TLS: 443 Step 3.. Edge Server proxies connection to Director SIP/MTLS:5061

97. Access Edge – SIP/TLS: 443 Step 4. Director authenticates user and proxies connection to user’s home pool SIP/MTLS:5061 HTTPS: 443

98. Access Edge: SIP/TLS: 443 SIP/MTLS:5061 HTTPS: 443 SIP/MTLS: 5061 Federated IM & Presence Workloads

99. ESTABLISHING MEDIA PATH ICE

100. SDP, STUN, TURN, ICE Lync uses SDP to provide initialization parameters for media stream Add a Media Relay (aka A/V Edge Server) STUN reflects NAT addresses TURN relays media packets ICE exchanges candidates (cand) and determines optimal media path to assist media in traversing NATs without requiring the endpoints to be aware of their network topologies All three protocols based IETF standards

101. ICE Details There are five phases for establishing a media path During login TURN Provisioning and Credentials (MRAS – Media Relay Authentication Service) When establishing a call Address Discovery (Allocation) (Obtain Candidate List) Address Exchange (SIP Invite/200 OK) Connectivity Checks Candidate Promotion

102. In summary, to send media into the enterprise, the external user must be authenticated and have an authenticated internal user explicitly agree to exchange media streams. Lync Server 2010 uses TCP 50,000-59,999 outbound. Lync Server 2010 federating with Office Communications Server 2007 partners continues to use the port range of 50,000 – 59,999 UDP/TCP. Federation involving Lync Server 2010 partners or Office Communications Server 2007 R2 partners will use 3478/UDP and 443/TCP, and TCP 50,000- 59,999 outbound

103. Step 1. Inband Provisioning Process duing Lync Sign-In

105. Step 2. Obtain Candidate List

107. Step 3. Connectivity Checks

108. Step 4. Candidate Promotion
