Hi,

We are getting the below warning when clicking Hub Transport option under Server Configuration in Exchange 2010. Could you please share some suggestions to resolve it?

    Hi,

    From your description and the warning message you shared, is the Exchange 2010 server coexistent with Exchange 2013? If this is the case, according to my research, this could be an expected behavior as Ex2013\Default Frontend Ex2013 is only available in Exchange 2013 and may not be handled in Exchange 2010.

    Given this, normally this warning message can be safely ignored. And it's suggested to use the Exchange 2013 management tools instead.

    Here is a thread which discuss a similar warning for your reference: Exchange 2013 Hybrid Wizard

    By the way, please be aware that Exchange 2010 has end its support lifecycle, it's highly recommended to complete the migration to newer versions of Exchange and decommission Exchange 2010 as soon as possible.
