    hi there..

    i would like to ask smthng about TMG. I need to install it on Vmware. but the problem is there is only one network that i can configure,

    but as i can read about single card installations cant use firewall, is there any way 2 do that?

    should i create 1 more vnetwork adepter for Tmg? do you think that works with this way?

    thanks for answers from now on...

    Regards

    Hi,

    Thank you for the post.

    “but as i can read about single card installations can’t use firewall, is there any way 2 do that?” – it depends on what functionality the TMG server will do. If you want to configure TMG as forward proxy server or simple web site and Exchange service publishing, then single NIC card is enough. If you want to do some server publishing and control more subnet with different rule and policy, you should add new NIC, at least two NIC cards.
