5.4.6 Configure an External DNS Entry for the Acronis Access
Gateway Server
After the TMG configuration process has been completed, you need to create a DNS record in the
external DNS servers in order to redirect all Acronis Access desktop/mobile connections to the
external network adapter of the TMG. The DNS entry should resolve the name of your server (e.g.
access.domain.com) to the external IP address of the TMG server. All client requests will be sent to
and managed by TMG. In this configuration scenario, TMG does not require clients to authenticate,
and all users will access the Acronis Access server without any knowledge that the response is
coming from the Microsoft Forefront TMG instead.
