Following Setup, the Getting Started Wizard runs automatically the first time you open the Forefront Unified Access Gateway (UAG) Management console. You must complete the wizard before proceeding with Forefront UAG configuration. The Getting Started Wizard helps you to set up the network adapter settings required for your network infrastructure, and configure Microsoft update settings. Optionally, you can also use the wizard to gather multiple Forefront UAG servers into a server array.
