Installing and Configuring Microsoft Forefront TMG - Videos

I came across a good series of videos that takes you through the entire process of installing and configuring Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway.

Although there is no sound in the videos, they are useful to have on the side if you are setting up Forefront TMG for the first time.

Kudos to arondmessaging (arondmessaging YouTube Channel)  and PirestPaulo (PirestPaulo YouTube Channel).

Enjoy!

Microsoft Forefront TMG Setup - Part 1

This video takes you through the preparation of the TMG Server. This includes renaming the server, renaming the network adapters to make a clear distinction between your internal and external adapters, as well as setting the TCP/IP configuration on each adapter.

it also takes you through the installation phase which includes running the preparation tool, installing the TMG services and management console, and defining the internal network. If watching progress bars isn't your idea of fun, you can skip everything between 4:00 and 6:20.
