This guide is much clearer than the others I had come across. Thank you for sharing!

It's pretty easy to set up. you set up the Microsoft Federation trust; and then you add your sister companies as organization relationships. It has to be set up in both domains, and then (usually) it just works. On Tue, Jul 22, 2014 at 4:39 PM, Orlebeck, Geoffrey <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hello group! We have a couple sister companies with their own AD/Exchange environments that we manage. It’s come to a point where the main campus and the sister companies want to share calendar information for scheduling meetings/resources between their domains. This will be my first time setting up Exchange calendar sharing between external entities. We have trusts between each of the domains, but it appears Exchange 2010 doesn’t even require AD trusts, rather it leverages Exchange Federation Trusts. However, looking online I’m getting confused by the terminology and the “Microsoft Federation Gateway” component. The TechNet articles didn’t clear up the matter for me, and different guides I’ve come across make it sound like MFG is required, but that it’s an online service provided by Microsoft. That doesn’t seem accurate to me that we should have to go through MS to setup this type of trust. But I don’t know and could be wrong. Is there a guide someone can point me to for setting up calendar free/busy information for two on-premise Exchange 2010 SP3 servers? Is Federation Trusts the go-to method or am I missing the boat entirely on other options for sharing free/busy calendar information across domains?
