Alternatively, if an internet connection is not available or a firewall prevents such access the activation may be performed over the telephone.

In this two part series on how to put together a working Terminal Services Gateway solution, we will use the lab network you see in the figure below.
Each of the servers in this scenario are running Windows Server Enterprise Edition. The key configuration option here is that you forward TCP port connections to the Terminal Service Gateway computer.
The Terminal Server has only the base operating system installed. We will install other services during the course of this article series. The TS Gateway has only the base operating system installed.
