Pass Your Microsoft 70-342 Exam Easy!

I passed the Exam today with a scoring point of 7XX.It was tough I must tell you. I had to also use my experience and not just the dumps.

Mixed questions 50,
The answer in this dump I believe is wrong. There is a catch however. To be able to apply a rule to a group, it needs to be mail enabled, and the question doesn't state the groups are.
For the sake of administration, I still think the correct answers are:
- The sender is a member of...
- The recipient is a member of...

Q66 (new questions 18),
A&C appears to be the right answer, however, Online archives can be managed through the on premise console.
This would make C&D valid answers.
I tend to go with C&D.

Fabrikam, Q4
This dump states the correct answer as C & E, as these 2 networks are suitable for replication traffic.
Although I agree these networks are most likely best suited for replication traffic, the testlet doesn't specify the traffic needs to be seperated. It only specifies the current IP to be assigned by DHCP, whereas we need a static IP. The MAPI clients need to be able to communicate with the DAG, so i think B&D are the correct answers

Proseware, Q3

The answer fields in this question are a bit confusing.
I've chosen to go with the following:
Contractual email messages - "email messages in a mailbox folder ... contain contractual information"
Deleted items - "email messages in the deleted items folder.... 30 days"
Mailbox - "All other messages .... one year"
Projects - "email messages in the projects folder ... retained indefinitely"

With this order in mind, I believe the answer in the dump is incorrect. I believe the answer should be:

Contractual - Personal retention policy tag
Deleted items - retention policy tag
Mailbox - retention policy tag
Projects - Personal retention policy tag

A default retention policy, or default tag, I believe is not applied here. See also the following technet article

Another nice once
Contoso Q3

I believe the correct order is:

box1: get-exchangecertificate
box2: new-federationtrust
box3: Create a txt-record

The get-exchangecertificate output can be piped to the new-federationtrust. I believe the TXT-record has to be made after the trust has been setup, before configuring federated sharing.

The exchange 2013 article seems to support this, although to my opinion, the 2010 article is a bit easier to read and understand.

I'm having some concerns about adatum question 10. According to this dump, and previous ones, the correct answer is the bottem right one. The Exchange Infrastructure part however, states there is a cas/hub server, and a CCR cluster per main office. So, if my understanding is correct, 2 mailboxservers per main office. CCR is a discontinued technique, replaced by DAG. I believe the top left is therefor also a valid option.

The fact there are both active and inactive mailboxes doesn't matter in my opinion, as the infrastructure part describes these mailboxes residing on each server.

Please share your thoughts!

Navi, I couldn't agree more.
Attempting to export messages from a suspended queue results in an error message in powershell, stating you need to suspend the message.
I think the correct order is:
-suspend the messages in the queue
- export mesages from the queue
- remove messages from the queue
- copy exported messages to the replay directory.

Now, replay directory or pickup directory is a nasty one, as the messages will both end up in the mailbox.

I've gone with replay, as technet states: "he Replay directory receives messages from foreign gateway servers and can also be used to resubmit messages that administrators export from the queues of Exchange servers."

Hey Guys, I'm going to throw in some comments here and there. I appreciate your feedback, and hope we can get some discussion going.

Answer for Q47 in Mixed 68 questions related to Export Messages is wrong.

Correct Answer should be - Use "Suspend messages" instead of "Suspend Queue".
