# F5 APM Microsoft Exchange 2016

## Microsoft Exchange specific config options for integration with F5 APM

### OWA 2010

Integrate Microsoft OWA and APM seems to be easy but the devil has to be found in the details.

Example: The customer want to give the options like the light version or public- or private-computer to the users like here in OWA 2010:

When you log in, OWA offers the following options:

- **This is a public or shared computer**: Allows you to be logged in for 1 hour before you are automatically logged out.
- **This is a private computer**: Allows you to be logged in for 24 hours you are automatically logged out.
- **Use the light version of Outlook Web App**: Removes some of the features of OWA.

This settings are described here: <span class="wikiexternallink">[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/client-access-servers/set-owavirtualdirectory](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/client-access-servers/set-owavirtualdirectory?view=exchange-ps)</span>
