Steve, I think you just answered my question - there are RRAS settings that you 
are defining external to the TMG manglement, so no - these will not be 
persisted between backup/restore operations.
You can use netsh to back up and restore RRAS, effectively extending the TMG 
backup/restore process.
FWIW, TMG uses the netsh API to persist the RRAS configuration.

Jim, when I do a restore, a lot of RRAS gets done such as the Network 
Interfaces and Ports (albeit the configuration of PPTP and L2TP is not enabled 
for Demand Dial Routing).  But under IPV4, the Static Routes and Site to Site 
connections under General don't get created.  If I create the Static Routes 
manually, data will flow between the various LANs and even between sites (S2S 
VPNs); however, RRAS won't let me create any interfaces under the General tab.  
It's all the stuff under IPV4 that I would assume should get created also - 
especially the Static Routes to allow data to flow between the different 
subnets.

Echo.. echo... echo....

Steven,

When you configure RRAS, is it _all_ done through the TMG manglement?
If not, there no reason to expect TMG restore to re-establish any 
"non-TMG-established" part of the RRAS configuration during restore.

Subject: [isalist] TMG restore and RRAS

I've been testing out a restore of TMG systems by bringing up a 2008R2 server 
(virtual), then installing TMG, then doing a restore.  All seems to work well 
on systems with 2 NICs (External, Internal), but I've been running into issues 
when there are several NICs (External, Internal1, Internal2, Internal3, etc.).  
TMG seems to be fine, but he RRAS service seems to have issues creating the 
"Static Routes" under IPV4 as well as the "General" section not showing the 
SitetoSiteVPN connections.  Also in RRAS, the Site-to-Site connections I have 
in Network Interfaces are disabled and the Ports have the L2TP and PPTP ports 
not enabled for Demand Dial Routing.  I can manually enable them, but after a 
reboot, the settings revert.

I've done the removal of RRAS, then did a simple recreate, then modify a TMG 
rule to see it recreate RRAS, but not everything needed is recreated.  Am I 
doing something wrong?  I'd hate to have to rebuild from scratch, but I thought 
TMG would rebuild all the necessary components for RRAS with a restore.
