Restrict Outlook Web Access Based On Hours
Environment:
Active Directory
Exchange 2013 on prem
The goal is:
I would like to restrict certain users from logging into OWA during certain off hours. Is there a way to do this?
In Active Directory, there is a "Logon Hours" section within every users. If I restrict login hours, does that apply to Outlook Web Access as well?
Thank you!

Yes, Active Directory Login Hours will apply to OWA as well.
Brian + Shreedhar bring up using Active Directory too.
Whether you use AD or firewall rules will both work.
Using Firewall rules will work independent of any AD problems or maintenance.
Likely using AD will be easier + firewall rules will be a bit more brutal/terse... no indication of why connecting can't occur...

Just tested this and it worked perfectly.

1) Run a command on the clock to block all access to your server ports at one point in time.
2) Run a command on the clock to delete firewall rule(s) added in #1 at another point in time.
