Errors may occur when a user cannot connect to the Remote Desktop Virtualization Host after you publish Remote Desktop Services or RemoteApp programs in Forefront UAG 2010. Configuration activation time may increase significantly after you apply Forefront UAG 2010 SP1. Passwords that contain special characters may not be recognized for Nokia Mail for Exchange users in Forefront UAG 2010 SP1. External ActiveSync client sessions may be able to view other user mailboxes in Forefront UAG 2010 SP1. I’d want to also add that UAG SP2 fixes many issues that highlighted on the main patch notes but within another sub-section. For those of you who have been following cloud adoption and the increasing request for claims based authentication - UAG SP2 really shows the commitment that Microsoft is bringing to drive this technology. The SP2 adds increased functionality for ADFS v2. I’m happy to report that UAG 2010 – SP2 is finally released. UAG also supports smartcards which is very common for government entities. The common scenarios are publishing SharePoint, OWA, Active Sync or even your corporate website. However, if you were using TMG to perform web\socket publishing then UAG might be the right option for you. UAG is a remote access product so definitely keep researching. What are you using TMG for? If you’re using it as a true edge firewall (port blocking, site-2-site VPN, outbound content control, ISP redundancy, etc…) then UAG isn’t the right product for you. Now to address the most common question… Can I move from TMG to UAG? The answer is, it depends. 
As a security professional, whether its your firewall, AV or the locks to the server room, always know your options! Please, keep in mind that Microsoft is no longer selling TMG licenses as of Dec 2012. TMG is one of the best gateways, but one of a few. New potential customers? Migrating from ISA to TMG? See comment above. Microsoft is still supporting it for a few more years so if you’re an existing TMG customer, don’t worry – there is no immediate threat. TMG is still one of the best Threat Gateways on the marketplace today. By now, everyone knows the news but the question is, what do I do now? I’ve received overwhelming emails and LinkedIn messages from my peers who expressed interests in TMG’s end.
