Microsoft 365
The SSR optimizes Microsoft 365 sessions, allowing you to easily configure the associated services to be delivered using the recommended network connectivity principles. It uses an AppID module for automatic discovery of Microsoft 365 endpoints, and simple service definition.
Microsoft 365, or M365 is formerly known as Office 365, or O365.
Configuration
To configure your router for Microsoft 365 you must enable the router for AppID module learning mode, create Microsoft 365 services, and define associated policies for access, security, and routing.
Enable Module Learning Mode
In the router configuration, enable module based application learning mode by adding module
to the "Application Identification" settings. SSR software installs a default AppID module for Microsoft 365 applications.

Once the module AppID learning mode is enabled, the router host will periodically connect to Microsoft's https://endpoints.office.com
web service to retrieve M365 endpoints. Ensure your router host is able to access the public web service using the Linux kernel route table.
Configure Services
Once module AppID learning mode has been enabled, the following application names will be automatically discovered (see Verifying Operation to confirm successful discovery):
Application Name | Description |
---|---|
O365-Common | Microsoft 365 Common and Office Online |
O365-Exchange | Exchange Online |
O365-SharePoint | SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business |
O365-Skype | Skype for Business Online and Microsoft Teams |
Create one or more services configured for the module discovered application names.
