RPC Over HTTP

RPC over HTTP allows clients on the internet to securely connect to a Microsoft Exchange Server without a VPN by using SSL over HTTP. The protocol requires the server to authenticate itself to the client with a digital certificate and private key. It takes advantage of the built-in HTTP connectivity of Outlook Web Access to connect through corporate firewalls without opening additional ports.

RPC over HTTP RPC over HTTP (Remote Procedure Call over HTTP) is a protocol that allows a client

on the Internet to connect securely to a Microsoft Exchange Server without having to log into a virtual private network (VPN) first. RPC over HTTP uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) as a transport protocol and mandates that the server authenticates itself to the client using a digital certificate and associated private key. The protocol takes advantage of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) connectivity built into the Outlook Web Access (OWA), foregoing requirements for an administrator to open additional ports on the corporate firewall.
