Issue/Introduction
Steps on how to ensure Microsoft Office 365 is locked down to only accept connections from Symantec Email Cloud IP ranges.
Resolution
To restrict the flow of email between your Office 365 organization and the Symantec.cloud service, set up connectors in Exchange Online or Exchange Online Protection (EOP) to use only the Symantec.cloud IP address range.
To specify multiple IP addresses, use Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) ranges in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn/rr, where rr is a number from 24 to 32.
Note: By configuring the connector in this manner, any email that does not originate from Symantec.cloud IP address ranges will be rejected.
To require that all emails are sent from a specific IP address range, please create a connector that ensures mail is accepted only from Symantec IP ranges from all domains. Please check Configure Microsoft® Office 365™ for inbound mail for further details.
IPV4 IP addresses and Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR)
IPV4 IP addresses must be specified in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn, where nnn is a number from 0 to 255.
You can also specify Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) ranges in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn/rr, where rr is a number from 24 to 32, as shown in Table 1. To help you with this, we have provided all Symantec.cloud IP address ranges up to /24 for each region below.

Creating connectors using a PowerShell script
To speed up the process of entering IP addresses, you can use the following PowerShell script.
Note: We recommend that you use the Exchange Online PowerShell V2 module to connect to Exchange Online PowerShell.
<#
Synopsis
This script contains all Symantec.cloud IP address ranges converted to a Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) range of IP addresses to /24, allowing for quick entry into Office 365.
Note: Office 365 allows CIDR ranges from /24 to /32.
Description
This script creates a new connector for Office 365 that is restricted to Symantec.cloud IP addresses based on http://www.symantec.com/docs/INFO4532.
The connector is named "Symantec.cloud IP Address Ranges".
Notes
- When prompted for a username and password, enter your Office 365 admin credentials.
- New connectors will be disabled by default.
