Configuring EAP authentication
Updated: February 1, 2011
Applies To: Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG)
If you create a virtual private network (VPN) remote site network that uses a Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) connection, and you select Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) as its authentication protocol, you must complete the EAP configuration. EAP configuration is done using the Routing and Remote Access Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in.
Completing the EAP configuration
To complete the EAP configuration
On the Forefront TMG computer, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Routing and Remote Access.
In the Routing and Remote Access MMC snap-in, select the Network Interfaces node.
When you applied the changes to the Forefront TMG configuration, a demand dial interface with the same name you gave the network was created. Select this demand dial interface, and then click Properties.
On the Security tab, the advanced custom settings option should be selected. Click Settings to open Advanced Security Settings.
Select the EAP you will be using, and then click Properties to configure EAP according to your EAP provider.
