This section will cover the required INI settings to configure VMware Tunnel Service and Web Reverse Proxy during the Unified Access Gateway appliance deployment.

1. Configuring the General deployment settings

A INI file containing all the configuration settings required to deploy the Unified Access Gateway Appliance.

In this exercise you will use the uag-Cert-to-Kerberos file and fill out the respective parameters for your deployment.

You will be deploying a new Unified Access Gateway Appliance called UAG-CERT, that has two NICs where NIC one is set to internet facing and NIC two for Backend and management.
