Detailed Description

The Remove-RoutingGroupConnector cmdlet removes the routing group connector between the Exchange 2007 routing group and an Exchange Server 2003 or Exchange 2000 Server routing group. A routing group connector is used to send and receive messages between Exchange 2007 Hub Transport servers and Exchange Server 2003 or Exchange 2000 Server bridgehead servers.

The Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange 2000 Server servers that are used as source servers for the specified routing group connector are automatically removed from the ExchangeLegacyInterop Universal Security Group.

To remove the routing group connector, you must provide the identity of the connector.

To run the Remove-RoutingGroupConnector cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:

  • Exchange Server Administrator role and local Administrators group for the target server

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange 2007, see Permission Considerations.
