Priority: Set the priority of the MX record to the highest value available, which is typically 0
Host Name: @
Address: to be supplied by client in format example-com01i.mail.protection.outlook.com
Record Type: CNAME
Hostname: autodiscover
Address: autodiscover.outlook.com
Record Type: CNAME
Hostname: sip
Address: sipdir.online.lync.com
Record Type: CNAME
Hostname: lyncdiscover
Address: webdir.online.lync.com
Record Type: CNAME
Hostname: msoid
Address: clientconfig.microsoftonline-p.net
