In many cases,
this will cause your Edge Server to stop functioning properly.
Q: Can I just use a single public IP address for all my Edge Server roles?
A: I do not recommend using a single IP address for all your Edge Server roles. It is possible,
though. Under the right circumstances, and if you are willing to spend time and effort to
stray from the recommended path, you may be able to get things working properly.
Q: Can the Edge Server be installed on another machine that I have in the DMZ?
A: I do not recommend installing the Edge Server on a server that has other applications
running. The Edge Server has a lot of distinct networking requirements and having it
share hardware with another application is likely to cause more problems than it is
worth.
Q: Why shouldn??™t I just install the Edge on the same server as my Exchange 2007 Edge?
A: Aside from the answer to the preceding question, Exchange 2007 runs on 64-bit hardware
and requires the 64-bit version of Windows Server. OCS, on the other hand, is a 32-bit
application.
Q: Can I install the Edge on virtual server or VMWare?
A: I do not recommend installing the Edge as a virtual machine, but yes, it is possible to
install it as such.
