Makes interesting reading. From: bounce-9589915-8066...@lyris.sunbelt-software.com [mailto:bounce-9589915-8066...@lyris.sunbelt-software.com] On Behalf Of Nicholas Turner Sent: 14 March 2013 13:52 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: TMG replacement. I would have liked to go with TMG, but however according to http://blogs.technet.com/b/server-cloud/archive/2012/09/12/important-changes-to-forefront-product-roadmaps.aspx as of 2013 it is no longer available for purchase, which seems a bit shortsighted! Nick From: Steven Alfano [mailto:salf...@mail.rockefeller.edu] Sent: 14 March 2013 13:38 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: TMG replacement. We also use TMG and this is what I have heard from both from our TAM and from MS engineers at MEC. UAG is the 'official' replacement; however everyone acknowledges this it is not the best fit when using ONLY for Exchange. TMG is supported with Exchange 2013. If you are on Exchange 2010 now and are using an 'array'; the updates to the Firewall Policy Rules are almost painless. No more silent redirect needed! We will have these changes confirmed on our test environment in about 60 days. Sooner, if I get a lot of extra free time! Another alternative is to use F5. We looked at this prior to implementing ISA/TMG and it looked better than TMG except for cost which was like $25,000.00 - $30,000.00 several years ago for our intended application. I spoke to the folks at F5 in MEC back in September and while we didn't speak about exact pricing, I believe they are not so pricy now. We use F5 for non-windows servers any they seem to have a pretty good product. MS has announced that there will be MEC sometime in April of 2014. It was stated at MEC 2012 that this would not be an annual event but be held when they have something important to showcase with regard to Exchange. Weather this will be to announce exchange 2015 or something more realistic like Edge Transport or TMG replacement is anyone's guess. Lots of people expressed dissatisfaction with MS at MEC 2012 on not having updates/replacements to both Edge and TMG, perhaps they got the message! Meanwhile, TMG is supported for Exchange 2013 as is Edge 2010 for people who currently use these products. As I believe TMG will not reach end of life for several years now; we plan to continue to use TMG as we only use this product for client connections to exchange and UAG is not a good fit for us. (Feeling for Nick's comment "if I can ever get it to work properly ...")

The answer is UAG, which I'm currently implementing and it seems ok (if I can ever get it to work properly...) Nick From: Liby Philip Mathew [mailto:lmat...@path-solutions.com] Sent: 14 March 2013 07:04 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: TMG replacement. Hi, I survive completely on ISA. With ISA & TMG being discontinued, what are the option, combinations for having Exchange 2013 in production and browsing for users? I would love to hear from the gurus on possible combinations.
