I am implementing an Exchange 2007 system which consists of two-node Load-balancing ISA Reverse Proxy Servers, two-node Load-balancing Exchange 2007 Hub/CAS and two-node Exchange 2007 Mailbox Cluster. I would like to use SSL Certificates with OWA, ActiveSync and Outlook Anywhere. How many certificates do I need? Any help will be appreciated.

You probably just need to one certitifcate which will be installed on your CAS servers using a common name e.g. mail.mydomain.com. You do not need external SSL for mailbox servers or ISA.

Hi,

You need a SAN / UCC certificate which may cost around $80 - $100. The SAN /UCC certificate should include following FQDN's

https://owa.youcompany.com
https://autodiscover.yourcompany.com
https://Internal FQDN of your CAS servers

Yes it supports exchange 2007, Microsoft office communication server 2007 and supports multiple subject alternative names.

You may check this out http://www.sslshopper.com/certificate-authority-reviews.html

As far as i'm concerned i'm using it for my company in US,PH & India. I'm not facing any issue.

Still certificate from verisign also is not going to cost more than $ 1000 max.
£5,170 is huge.

If you dont use a SAN/UC(Subject Alternative names/Unified Communincations) certificate you will get more problems than if you sre using the SAN/UCC.

Its more hassle to configure and set up and easier to get into problems.
Also free/busy information might not work for external OA clients.
