In the second tab called "Authentication" choose how we want to authenticate, if we can leave the default. In the third tab "Remote File Servers" you can define different rules to block or permit access to different hosts, in principle no need to touch anything. We accept and close.

We must now put "True" option in ActiveSync, many times and is automatically set to true to install the Exchange.
