Hello everyone We currently have a Windows Server 2012R2 with the ADFS function in use which is connected to Azure. Due to problems that always occur with the WID and the old Windows Server version on the AD FS Server, I have installed a new Windows Server with version 2016 and want to run the AD FS on it. Now it is connected to Azure and for the VPN to Cisco. I would like to migrate this 1 to 1 so that everything works as before. Can you please tell me the steps I need to follow or what I should "migrate"? The Cisco part isn't a big problem. Many thanks and best regards DeepDiveMessage
