Note

What is Exchange Schema Extension and What Does It Do?

Exchange Schema Extension refers to the process of adding additional attributes to the Active Directory schema to support Microsoft Exchange Server. The schema is essentially a blueprint for the types of objects and attributes that can be created within the directory. By extending the schema, administrators can ensure that the Active Directory environment is properly prepared to handle the specific requirements of Exchange Server, such as email addresses, mailboxes, and other Exchange-related attributes. This extension allows for seamless integration and efficient management of email services within the organization.
