XCON: Site Connector Address Spaces Do Not Appear in GWART When Sites Replicated

ID: Q182128

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5.0, 5.5

SYMPTOMS

Address spaces that are added or modified on a site connector that connects two replicated sites will not appear in the Gateway Address Routing Table (GWART) or Site Addressing Routing list.

CAUSE

This is by design. Address spaces on a site connector are only used if the sites being connected are not replicated. After the sites are replicated, all of the address spaces on the site connector (except for Local/Subsite restricted spaces) are ignored, and the remote site's replicated GWART is used to define the address spaces that the remote site supports.

RESOLUTION

X.400 Connector address spaces are not limited by directory replication and can be implemented in lieu of the site connector. The additional address space can then be defined for the X.400 Connector.
