3.7 Determining Connections between Systems

To facilitate addressing of messages between systems, you must set up a representation of the Exchange system in your GroupWise system and a connector to your GroupWise system in your Exchange system.

In GroupWise, non-GroupWise systems are represented by non-GroupWise domains. When you first start the Exchange Gateway, the non-GroupWise domain for the Exchange system is created automatically. By default, it is named after the Exchange organization. Under the non-GroupWise domain for the Exchange system, an external post office is automatically created for the Exchange site or administrative group on the Exchange server. By default, it is given the same name as the Exchange site or administrative group. If necessary, you can specify different names for the non-GroupWise domain and external post office.

EXCHANGE GATEWAY INSTALLATION WORKSHEET

Under Item 12: Non-GroupWise Domain, mark whether you want to use the default name (the Exchange organization) or specify a name for the non-GroupWise domain.

Under Item 13: External Post Office, mark whether you want to use the default name (the Exchange site or administrative group) or specify a name for the external post office.

In Exchange, non-Exchange systems link to the Exchange system through connectors. On the Exchange side, you might want to call the Exchange Gateway GroupwiseConnector, because it connects the Exchange system to GroupWise.

Under Item 6: Gateway Details, specify the name you want to use in Exchange to represent the link to the GroupWise system.
