One of the common questions that comes to the mind of any TMG administrator that sits in front of a TMG server that was installed by someone else is "Is this TMG Updated ? Which Service Pack is installed ?"
In this article, I will be showing you three different ways that can help you to know which version of TMG you are running.

I usually use one of the below three methods to indentify the version number of TMG server I'm running :

• From TMG Help menu

• From TMG System node

• Using Control Panel

I will start by showing you the three different methods, and then at the end of this article I will summarize the different version numbers in a table.

• Lets start with the help menu :

1. Open TMG 2010 Management Console
   
   
2. Click Help, and then click About Forefront Threat Management Gateway...
   
   
   
   
   
3. From the About Forefront Threat Management Gateway...  page, you can find the version number which is : 7.0.7734.100
   
   
   
   This is the RTM version number of Forefront TMG 2010.

• Identifying the version number using the System node :

1. Using TMG 2010 management console, from the left side pane, click on the System node
   
   
   
   
   
2. In the middle pane, under the Servers tab, you can see the version number under the Version column.
   
   
   

• Identifying the version number using the Control Panel :
  
  The third way to identify the version number of TMG is by using the Uninstall a Program applet from Control Panel

1. Click on Start > Control Panel
   
   
   
   
2. Under the Programs category, click on Uninstall a program
   
   
   
   
3. The version number will be found under the Version column
   
   
   
   
   Note: If you have Service Packs or Software Updates installed on your TMG, then to check the version number, you will have to click on View installed updates
   
   
   

In the below table, you can find the different version numbers for TMG 2010 :
