Notes

  • For more information about Web listeners, see Web listener overview.
  • When publishing over SSL, an SSL server certificate that was issued to the public host name of the published Web site must be installed in the Personal store for the local computer on the Forefront TMG computer. For more information about obtaining and installing SSL server certificates, see Configuring server certificates for secure Web publishing.
  • On the Web Listener IP Addresses page of the New Web Listener Wizard, you can also select Default IP addresses for network adapters on this network. If Network Load Balancing is enabled, this option will automatically select the virtual IP address. Otherwise, the default IP address will be automatically selected for each network adapter.
  • For SSL client certificate authentication, the system policy rule Allow All HTTP Traffic from Forefront TMG to All Networks (for CRL downloads) must be enabled. This system policy rule allows Forefront TMG to receive updated certificate revocation lists for validating the client certificates.
  • If you use RADIUS credentials validation, the Forefront TMG computer must be registered as a RADIUS client on the RADIUS server, and the RADIUS system policy rule must be enabled to allow RADIUS traffic from the Forefront TMG computer (Local Host network) to the Internal network. This rule assumes that the RADIUS server is located in the Internal network.
  • If you select RADIUS, LDAP, or RADIUS OTP credentials validation, you must edit the properties of the Web listener that you create to specify the RADIUS or LDAP servers that will be queried for authentication.
  • Users connect with Outlook Web Access by opening a URL that typically has the form https://host_name/exchange. You may need to modify the mappings between the paths specified by users and the internal paths on the Paths tab of your Web publishing rule's properties.
  • If you select Kerberos constrained delegation, you must perform additional procedures. For more information about Kerberos constrained delegation, see About Kerberos constrained delegation.
  • For more information about other settings in Web publishing rules, see Overview of Web publishing concepts.
