Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server supports the deployment of Exchange in a manner that distributes server tasks among front-end and back-end servers. A front-end server accepts requests from clients and proxies them to the appropriate back-end server for processing. This Exchange Online Book discusses how Exchange supports front-end and back-end server architecture, with an emphasis on HTTP for Outlook Web Access. This online book also describes several front-end and back-end scenarios and provides configuration recommendations.
Important: Most of the information in this online book pertains to Exchange 2000 Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later versions. Therefore, if you are running Exchange 2000 Service Pack 1 (SP1) or earlier, you should upgrade to Exchange SP2 to take full advantage of the features described in this online book.
