- When you use the Exchange Online Remote PowerShell Module, your session will end after one hour, which can be problematic for long-running scripts or processes. To avoid this issue, use [Trusted IPs](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/authentication/howto-mfa-mfasettings#trusted-ips) to bypass MFA for connections from your intranet. Trusted IPs allow you to connect to Exchange Online PowerShell from your intranet using the old instructions at [Connect to Exchange Online PowerShell](connect-to-exchange-online-powershell.md). Also, if you have servers in a datacenter, be sure to add their public IP addresses to Trusted IPs as described [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/authentication/howto-mfa-mfasettings#enable-the-trusted-ips-feature-by-using-service-settings).
