A Web request failed security checks.

Explanation

This Error event indicates that a proxy Web request failed one or more security checks at the Web service layer. When the Microsoft Exchange Availability service cannot directly connect to a mailbox that resides in a remote Active Directory site or forest, it sends a proxy Web request to another instance of the Exchange Availability service that is running in the remote Active Directory. The Exchange Availability service that is running in the remote Active Directory site retrieves the requested information locally and passes the information back to the Exchange Availability service that requested the information. This event occurs when the Exchange Availability service that requested the information cannot be authenticated by the receiving Availability service. This event is logged on the Exchange server that receives the Web request from a remote Active Directory site or forest.
