Microsoft Office 365 Network Tools

Welcome to the home for Microsoft Office 365 Network Tools, you will find here resources to help you:

1. Plan for Network Connectivity to Office 365 services
2. Optimize Network Connectivity and performance for users accessing Office 365 services

Through this initiative we are collecting solutions, scripts, and guidance from across Office 365 engineering teams with aim to make on-premises network infrastructure readiness easier for Office 365 on-boarding, we also intend to grow and improve these resources with help from the community and partners.

Folders & Description:

/Office 365 Network Bandwidth meter/

You can use this solution if you intend to:
