Using Forefront TMG/ISA Server BPA for documenting your deployment

An administrator of Forefront TMG or ISA Server may want to document their current configuration, so that they can:

1. Recreate the Forefront TMG/ISA Server setup from the documentation in the case of data loss/corruption.
2. Share the documentation with other people, so that they can understand what settings are used (e.g. in the case of a deployment handover).

This document describes how Best Practices Analyzer (BPA) can be used to automatically document the configuration.

There are 2 separate tools, one works for Forefront TMG, the other for ISA Server:

• ISA Server BPA
• Forefront TMG BPA

The procedures below, and all the examples, reference Forefront TMG BPA. The same procedure is equally applicable to ISA Server BPA.
