Virtualizing Forefront Threat Management Gateway

I thought I’d share this great video by Jim Harrison on considerations to make when planning to run Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG) (or ISA Server, for that matter) on a virtualized environment.

Get Microsoft Silverlight  

In this video, he discusses:

  • Performance, security and management considerations
  • Why it’s not recommended to place TMG on the parent, and how to configure the parent partition
  • High Availability with TMG in a virtual environment
  • Configuration changes for internet-facing hosts.

Also read Jim’s whitepaper on security considerations for virtualized ISA/TMG deployments.
