We have 2 Exchange 2010 client access servers in a CAS array, this works fine. &nbsp; Outlook clients and systems point to the CAS array address. &nbsp;Both are also Hub Transport servers<br />
<br />
We have 1 other CAS on the same network that is solely used for OWA. &nbsp;This only has the Client Access role.<br />
<br />
Occasionally outlook clients will try to connect to this 3rd CAS rather than the proper CAS array.<br />
<br />
How can I stop clients connecting to this 3rd CAS? I dont want clients to ever use this instead of the array.<br />
<br />
I was thinking of using the windows firewall on the server itself to reject the outlook clients having access to it. &nbsp;These outlook clients are all within a contiguous range of IP addresses so I would just block that range. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
But is there a better way to stop it advertising itself and taking requests away from the CAS array?
