Hi, guys

i would like to know about TMG and Router. Without firewall service, TMG works like a  Router? Or, Could TMG replace the router in our environment? 

Nice day

Hi,

TMG is a Firewall, Web Proxy, Reverse and Forwad Proxy, VPN Server, Application Layer Gateway Firewall and Forefront TMG is also able to act as a router but TMG is not a product to replace a Router.
And you cannot disable the Firewall services on the TMG Server. You must create Firewall policy rules which allows / deny traffic

Timmoon, It would be better if you tell us exactly what you are trying to accomplish. You can set up TMG to route traffic between different segments of your network but ultimately it is an Enterprise Class Firewall with some additional functions. 

Tell us what problem you are trying to solve and we can go from there.
