Wizards: open a wizard. The syntax is:

If you specify wizards, you must then specify the wizardname, the name of the wizard you want to open. The supported wizards are listed in List of supported wizards.

If you are in wizards mode, you can also specify the data that is required by some Forefront TMG wizards, using these optional parameters:

storageServer: the name of the Configuration Storage server

storageConnectionType: a value from an enumerated type that indicates whether the connection to the Configuration Storage server is unencrypted (use the value 0, which equals fpcRegularStorageConnection) or encrypted (use the value 1 = fpcSSLStorageConnection).

storagePort: the port number on which the local computer will communicate with the Configuration Storage server.

arrayName: the name of the array that the wizard refers to.

wizardAnswers: The path and name of the xml answer file that provides the data required by the wizard. This is supported only for the Web Access wizard. The xml answer file should have this format:

- <Wizard>

  <Argument name="EnableWebCache">true</Argument>

  </Wizard>
