Installing Forefront Threat Management Gateway (New ISA) in my System Center Operations Manager Lab
(Simple high-level step-by-step for the admin that does not require screenshots. The process below is probably useful for building a lab, production deployments would require little more planning.)
Basic Info
TMG is basically an Outbound Proxy.
UAG is basically an Inbound Proxy.
TMG consists of 3 roles:
- TMG Server (x64)
- Enterprise Management Server (x64) – i.e. The old Configuration Storage Server (CSS)
- Management Console (x86/x64)
E-mail protection must be installed separately. It is not installed by default!
