Set Up HTTP Basic Authentication on Exchange 2010

Set up HTTP Basic authentication on each endpoint.

Follow these steps:

1. Ensure that the Exchange server has its own server certificate with the following settings:
   • The Enhanced Key Usage of the certificate includes Server Authentication.
   • The certificate is in the local machine's computer account.
   • The subject of the certificate is the fully-qualified domain name of the computer. For example, somehost.example.com.
2. Open IIS Manager, then set up the following for the default web site:
   1. Select PowerShell and then click Authentication. Ensure that Basic Authentication is enabled.
   2. On the Actions panel, select Bindings. On the Site Bindings dialog, edit "https" and select the server certificate for SSL Certificate.
3. Configure Windows Remote management. To do this, open a command window as an administrator-level user, then use the following commands:

   winrm quickconfig
   winrm quickconfig -transport:https
   winrm set winrm/config/service/auth @{Basic="true"}
   

You have now configured HTTP Basic authentication.
