Account is getting locked & getting failed authentication event in the logs repeatedly

On the server the mentioned "username" account is local admin as well as an exchange user.

Exchange account is configured on iphone accessible using 3G network & on outlook on the internal ip 192.168.0.16
In the event if you notice the authentication failure is coming thru ip 192.168.2.1
this is router IP interface on another VLAN....request from 2.x is not expected.
routing on VLAN is disabled. All the VLAN are configured as isolated.

This event is generated when a logon request fails. It is generated on the computer where access was attempted.

The Subject fields indicate the account on the local system which requested the logon. This is most commonly a service such as the Server service, or a local process such as Winlogon.exe or Services.exe.

The Logon Type field indicates the kind of logon that was requested. The most common types are 2 (interactive) and 3 (network).

The Process Information fields indicate which account and process on the system requested the logon.

The Network Information fields indicate where a remote logon request originated. Workstation name is not always available and may be left blank in some cases.

The authentication information fields provide detailed information about this specific logon request.
      - Transited services indicate which intermediate services have participated in this logon request.
      - Package name indicates which sub-protocol was used among the NTLM protocols.
      - Key length indicates the length of the generated session key. This will be 0 if no session key was requested.

I removed one entry from credential manager that was having obsolete password.
Secondly I change authentication type to NTLM negotiation in exchange email settings that connect through https (over the web protocol)

I am not getting account lockout notifications now.
