Skype for Business Server Edge Pool deployment has four parts to cover end to end deployment process. See Part I, Part II, Part III and Part IV for step by step process.

This post is a continuation of my preceding post #Skype4B – Edge Pool Deployment Part II and describes the step by step installation of Edge Server.

Log on one of the Edge Server with administrative rights.

Open PowerShell and add following features.

Add-WindowsFeature NET-Framework-Core, Windows-Identity-Foundation, NET-WCF-HTTP-Activation45, Web-Asp-Net45 -Source D:\sources\sxs

Run windows update (KB2982006).

Install Silverlight.

Insert Skype for Business Server 2015 media and run setup.exe.

Accept License Agreement.

Run “Install or Update Skype for Business Server System” from deployment Wizard.

Run “Install Local Configuration Store”

Navigate to the exported edge configuration and click on Next.

Run “Setup or Remove Skype for Business Server Components”

Once completed step1 and step2 successfully, request for the certificates.

Request Edge internal and external certificate separately. Internal certificate can be created from internal CA while external certificate request can be sent to Public CA to generate the certificate.

Once you have created internal and external certificates, Import the certificates and assign it.

I hope you enjoyed it J
