Hi,
Currently I have Hybrid configuration and its working fine.
currently the External DNS is point to my premise.
I need to use Exchange Online Protection only to protect incomming email, but I still need to keep Autodiscover pointing to my premise.
As far as I know it should be a simple thing which I change the MX only and leave the CNAME for the autodiscover pointing to my premise.
But the issue I am having is when I try to manage the DNS using the Portal.Office.com I am forced to change all, MX - Autodiscover - SPF record.
how can I configure the wizard to only process MX and SPF and not to change the autodiscover.
is it OK if I did the change only for these 2 records and leave the autodiscover as is ?
NOTE I am using a thirdparty External DNS infrastructure.
Thanks

SolutionEOP doesnt care about your autodiscover record, the MX is the important one here. And pay no attention to the Domain setup/DNS setup wizard in the portal, even 9 years after release they havent adapted it to cater to hybrid scenarios.

Thanks for your answer.
So I will update the DNS direct and just leave autodiscover alone.
this should have no impact and hopfully everything will be fine ... :)
