Microsoft Stream also helps you organize content into channels and groups so it’s easier to find. Microsoft Stream works well with other Office 365 apps like Teams, SharePoint, OneNote, giving even more ways to discover more relevant content. OneNote is a digital notebook you can use across multiple devices or through any web browser. Microsoft Teams now part of Office 365 ProPlus This caught my attention, Microsoft Teams is joining Office 365 ProPlus as a regular app like Word and Excel. Starting with the February monthly channel, then the March Semi-Annual Channel Targeted and July Semi-Annual Channel, Teams will be installed automatically on PC and Mac for new installs.

The Microsoft Teams admin center is gradually replacing the Skype for Business admin center, and we're migrating Teams settings to it from the Microsoft 365 admin center. If a setting has been migrated, you'll see a notification and then be directed to the setting's location in the Teams admin center.

The Microsoft Teams admin center is gradually replacing the Skype for Business admin center, and we're migrating Teams settings to it from the Microsoft 365 admin center. If a setting has been migrated, you'll see a notification and then be directed to the setting's location in the Teams admin center. For more information, see Manage Teams during the transition to the Teams admin center.

By default, Teams is turned on for all organizations. If you used Teams during the preview period, the setting stays the same as what you set during your Teams preview.

As an administrator for your organization, you can assign user licenses to control individual access to Teams, and you can allow or block what content sources can be used in Teams. See Manage Microsoft Teams settings for your organization or Admin settings for apps in Microsoft Teams for more information.

To learn more about managing individual licenses, read Microsoft Teams service description.

Turn Teams on or off for your entire organization

Tenant-level control for Teams was removed effective August 2018. Control access to Teams in your organization with user-level licensing. To learn more, see Manage user access to Teams.

Go to Microsoft 365 and Office 365 URLs and IP address ranges for a detailed and up-to-date list of the URLs, IP addresses, ports, and protocols that must be correctly configured for Teams. Microsoft is continuously improving the Microsoft 365 and Office 365 services and adding new functionality, which means the required ports, URLs, and IP addresses may change over time. We recommend that you subscribe via RSS to receive notifications when this information is updated or changed.

The Teams calling and meetings experience is built on the next generation cloud-based infrastructure that is also used by Skype and Skype for Business. These technology investments include Azure-based cloud services for media processing and signaling, H.264 video codec, SILK and Opus audio codec, network resiliency, telemetry, and quality diagnostics. As such, there are URLs and IPs that are required that may be associated with both Skype and Skype for Business.

For all Microsoft 365 and Office 365 workloads, the recommended connection method to Teams services is bypassing the forward proxy where possible. When a proxy server sits between a client and the Office 365 data centers, media might be forced over TCP instead of UDP, which would impact media quality. Download sample proxy PAC files that can be used to configure traffic bypass from Managing Microsoft 365 and Office 365 endpoints.

If your networking and security policies require Microsoft 365 or Office 365 traffic to flow through a proxy server, make sure that the above requirements are already met before deploying Teams into production. For more information, read Proxy Servers for Teams or Skype for Business Online.
