Two Modes for Connecting to Exchange: Agentless and Agent

In previous releases, the Exchange connector required an agent on every Exchange endpoint.

Now, you can connect to Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010 endpoints without using an agent. We recommend that you use agentless mode for new connections to these endpoints.

However, agentless mode does not work with Exchange 2003. To connect to Exchange 2003 endpoints, you must use the remote agent.

The following table lists the supported versions of Exchange for agentless and agent modes:
