Hi Rancy,
Current Infrastructure is Exchange Server 2007 SCC model with Single HUb & Single CAS, duel Iron Port is being used for SMTP gateway with 2000 user mailbox .
We are planning to Migrate with below feature,
1. Two HUB & CAS in Cas Array
2. Two Mailbox Server is in DAG Functionality.
We are already going to start to installation but I have couple of queries which I posted today itself.
I just wanted to know if any good guidelline is availble for Exchange Hardening.

Perfect for your concern for point 1 & 2
Look i would suggest use Storage Calculator to understand whats best with number of Mailbox DB's you should have .... (Ram, Storage, Bandwidth)
Are you not getting a EDGE but using Ironport itself i guess ?
What exactly do you mean by Hardening ?

Server haredening, sany Minimum port opening, renaming local administrator account, basically you can server Server Hardening & if any thing I can focus on Exchange part.
Look Ports i guess should be opened for it to communicate with DC\GC and fr port25 and HTTP and HTTPS rest depends if there is some additional ports you need to open on it.
