99 times out of 10, changes such as this are a choice borne of test capability 
limits.

OK, now I just read this:
From: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd772157.aspx
 
Release notes for Forefront UAG 2010
Published: January 11, 2010
Updated: October 21, 2010
Applies To: Unified Access Gateway
 
 
The PPTP and L2TP/IPsec protocol options that appeared in the Forefront UAG RTM 
Management console (although they were not supported) have been removed in SP1.
 
 
I have to say, ?what were they thinking?? I know we?re not the only ones that 
still have lots of XP clients out in the field. And they can?t use SSTP. I have 
read that at one point, MS was considering adding SSTP support into XP (maybe 
in SP3, maybe later), but then either minds changed or that was just a rumor. 
Apparently it is not going to happen. So I guess we can?t deploy UAG SP1. 
Disappointing.

Subject: [isalist] UAG VPN Issue
 
We are setting up UAG for the first time. The fellow we?re working with has it 
set up at his office. He?s got UAG 2010 without SP1. We?ve got UAG with SP1.
 
When we come to the dialog for setting up VPN access, it?s different on his box 
than it is on ours. We?re wondering if the difference is due to SP1 or 
something else.
 
On our SP1 box, the only VPN protocol option we get is SSTP. Since we still 
have lots of XP machines out in the field, we still need PPTP. If you look at 
the two screenshots below, you?ll see that on the non-SP1 version, he gets 
three protocol options: SSTP, PPTP, and L2TP. On the SP1 version, the only VPN 
protocol we get is for SSTP.
 
Is there a checkbox or something somewhere that will allow us to get more 
protocol options?
 
Thanks,
Rob
