Microsoft making it difficult to install new Edge on Server 2019 seems a bit like shooting yourself in the foot. BTW - Chrome installs fine from their web page. But why won't the installer launch from the website?

If you are looking for the Microsoft Edge browser on Server 2016, look no further, it isn’t available! This is due to Windows Server 2016 being in the Long-Term Servicing Branch and the quicker rate of change of the Edge browser can’t be supported.

The official response from Microsoft is:
“The Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB) versions of Windows, including Windows Server 2016, don’t include Microsoft Edge or many other Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps. These apps and their services are frequently updated with new functionality, and can’t be supported on systems running the LTSB operating systems. For customers who require the LTSB for specialized devices, we recommend using Internet Explorer 11.”

It’s a shame not to have a consistent user experience between Windows 10 and Server 2016 especially in environments that use Remote Desktop Services.

We have been seeing the different Architecture of the Exchange Server and has been implementing those architecture on our environment. One of the major component on the Exchange Architecture is Edge Server. There might be different WH question for the Edge server like, WHAT, WHY and HOW. So, on this blog I am sharing my knowledge and experience regarding the Edge server as well how to configure Exchange 2016 Edge Transport Server.

WHAT is the Exchange Edge Transport server?

Basically, Exchange Edge Transport server are resided on the DMZ Network which helps to make flow email from the External world i.e. internet to our exchange server. But during the transport it also manage to check and filter the emails for the spams.

Below is the basic concept of the Exchange Edge Transport Architecture which lies between the Firewalls.

WHY Exchange Edge Transport Server?

As Edge Transport servers handle all inbound and outbound Internet mail flow by providing mail relay and smart host services for your Exchange organization. Agents running on the Edge Transport server provide additional layers of message protection and security. These agents provide protection against spam and apply transport rules to control mail flow. All of these features work together to help minimize the exposure of your internal Exchange to threats on the Internet. Although it is not mandatory to have Exchange Edge Transport server on every Architecture.

How to configure Exchange Edge Transport Server?

You can install one or more Edge Transport server in the perimeter network. Deploying more than one Edge Transport server provides redundancy and failover capabilities for your inbound message flow. You can load balance the SMTP traffic to your organization among Edge Transport servers by defining more than one MX record with the same priority value for your mail domain. You can achieve consistency in the configuration among multiple Edge Transport servers by using cloned configuration scripts.
