Whether planning to deploy Microsoft Teams Room on Android (MTRoA) solution for a Proof-of-Concept (POC) or an actual deployment, there are certain mandatory pre-requisites that have to be met before the solution can be deployed successfully in a corporate network environment. This includes hardware components of the solution, software licenses, network requirements as well as firewall ports and proxy configurations, and last but not least security and AD/AAD requirements. Below is a handy checklist to make sure all the pre-requisites are met before starting to unbox that brand new MTRoA you just received :)
Assuming that AC power requirements and single or dual HDMI 1080p displays are available, ensure that the MTRoA solution has the following:
Step
Description
Y/N
1

LAN cable TCP/IP network access to a server that can provide an IP address using DHCP. Microsoft Teams Rooms cannot be configured with a static IP address at the first unit startup.
□
2
NTP Time Server via DHCP Option 042 and TimeZone setting via DHCP Option 002
□
3
Access to your Active Directory ADFS or Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) instance, as well as Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft Teams. Access to HTTP ports 80 and 443.
□
4
Firewall rules for ​TCP and UDP ports enabled as described in Microsoft 365 and Office 365 URLs and IP address ranges for Microsoft Teams.
□
5
[Optional] Web Proxy configuration as described in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/rooms/rooms-prep#proxy. Microsoft Teams Rooms does not support proxy authentication as it may interfere with regular operations of the room. ​If your proxy server utilizes internally signed certificates, you must install the internal certificate chain, including the root CA, on the Microsoft Teams Rooms device.
​
Web Proxy IP/FQDN: ___________________________________________________________
Web Proxy port: _______________________________________________________________
Web Proxy PAC URL: ___________________________________________________________
□
6
​​​Each Microsoft Teams Rooms device needs its own resource account. The resource account is the account the Teams Rooms device logs into and is what users in your organization invite to book the Teams Room. Follow the steps here to create the account: ​https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/rooms/with-office-365?tabs=m365-admin-center%2Cazure-active-directory2-password#create-a-resource-account . Please note that multi-factor authentication (MFA) is not supported for the resource account

Resource Account UPN: _______________________________________________________________
Resource Account Password (Set to not expire): ____________________________________________
□
7
Available Teams Room license for the resource account. Follow these steps to assign the license ​https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/rooms/with-office-365?tabs=m365-admin-center%2Cazure-active-directory2-password#assign-a-meeting-room-license
​□
8
Configure mailbox properties of the resource account created in step 6. Follow the steps here: ​https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/rooms/with-office-365?tabs=m365-admin-center%2Cazure-active-directory2-password#configure-mailbox-properties 
​□
9
Ensure sufficient network bandwidth for optimal Teams Room experiences by following the guidance here: ​https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/prepare-network#bandwidth-requirements 
​□
10
