Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 enables you to restrict access to Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync by using the device ID. This feature prevents users from synchronizing unauthorized devices with Exchange 2007. You can configure this restriction on each user's mailbox. By default, if Exchange ActiveSync is enabled for a user, the user can synchronize their Exchange mailbox with any device. To restrict a user to a specific device, populate the ActiveSyncAllowedDeviceIDs parameter from the Set-CASMailbox task. If Exchange ActiveSync is not enabled for the user, they will be unable to synchronize any device with Exchange. This topic provides instructions for how to enable a specific device for Exchange ActiveSync. This task can be completed only by using the Exchange Management Shell.

Before You Begin

To perform the following procedure, the account you use must be delegated the following:

  • Exchange Recipient Administrator role

  • Membership in the local Administrators group

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

Also, before you perform this procedure, make sure that Exchange ActiveSync is enabled for the user.

Procedure

To use the Exchange Management Shell to enable a device for Exchange ActiveSync

  • Run the following command:

    Set-CASMailbox -Identity: "EmailAlias" -ActiveSyncAllowedDeviceIDs: "<DeviceID_1>","<DeviceID_2>"

    Note

    There is no built-in functionality for retrieving the device ID before the user synchronizes with the Exchange server. After the user has synchronized the device with the Exchange server, you can run the following command to retrieve the device ID:

    Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics -Mailbox:"<EmailAlias>" |fl DeviceID

For more information about syntax and parameters, see Set-CASMailbox.
