Install TMG on ESX server with one NIC
-
Thursday, February 14, 2013 4:47 PMHi Dear all
I have a problem with TMG
We have ESX server (with one NIC) that I create a new VM on it and install windows 2008R2, next install TMG 2010 but after install it seems need two NIC.
I create a new virtual NIC on vSphere and assign it to the VM, now I have 2 NIC on this server (LAN,WAN)
LAN range IP 192.168.X.X
Sub-net 255.255.255.0
DG blank
-------------------------
WAN range IP 91.98.X.X
Sub-net 255.0.0.0
DG 91.98.X.X
Is it possible just with one NIC do this job and after that all LAN clients coming beyond the TMG?
Please explain with detail ,I'm newbie !!!

Hi,
You can install TMG with a single network card, but it does limit its usage.
Please see http://www.isaserver.org/tutorials/Microsoft-Forefront-TMG-How-use-TMG-network-templates.html for more information.
I would add another NIC to the ESX server and connect that network to you internet connection and then you would be able to route internal traffic though the TMG and out.

Hi,
Thank you for the post.
“Is it possible just with one NIC do this job and after that all LAN clients coming beyond the TMG?”- yes, you can use only single NIC if you just want to deploy TMG server as a forward proxy and caching server. There are manly limitations: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc995236.aspx
