Create Endpoint for Migration<\/strong><\/h3><p>The first and foremost step, before executing remote move migrations &ndash; both On-Boarding and Off-Boarding, is to create Exchange migration endpoint. This endpoint includes connection setting for on-premises Exchange server, which runs the MRS proxy. This service helps in executing remote migrations to and from Exchange online.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"398\" height=\"99\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Migrations-endpoints.png\" alt=\"Migration Endpoint\" class=\"wp-image-62179 apply-gradient-on-post-images\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Migrations-endpoints.png 398w, https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Migrations-endpoints-300x75.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 398px) 100vw, 398px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"329\" height=\"257\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/new-migrations-1.png\" alt=\"Select the migration endpoint type\" class=\"wp-image-62182 apply-gradient-on-post-images\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/new-migrations-1.png 329w, https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/new-migrations-1-300x234.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 329px) 100vw, 329px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.
