For each Lync Server 2013 Front End Server or Standard Edition server in your pilot pool, you must update the list of internal servers that are authorized to connect to the Office Communications Server 2007 R2 Edge Server. Without these updates, external audio/visual (A/V) conferencing for users joining by using the legacy Edge Server will not work.

To Authorize Connection to Office Communications Server 2007 R2 Edge Server

  1. From the Office Communications Server 2007 R2 Edge Server, from the Administrative Tools group, open the Computer Management snap-in.

  2. In the console tree, expand Services and Applications.

  3. Right-click Office Communications Server 2007 R2, and then click Properties.

  4. Click the Internal tab.

  5. Under Add Server, click Add.

  6. In the Add Office Communications Server dialog box, enter the appropriate information:

    • Specify the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of each Lync Server 2013 Front End Server or Standard Edition server, and Lync Server 2013 pool.

    • Specify the FQDN of the Lync Server 2013 Director if you configured a static route on the pool that specifies the next hop computer by its FQDN.

  7. After you have added an entry for each Lync Server 2013, Front End Server, Standard Edition server, pool, and Director, click Apply and then click OK to close the Properties page.
