   Source Connection Settings
   Migration Source	Select the type of source server you are migrating from. If you don't know or are unsure, select I don't know then, select the type of items to migrate from your source server.
   Connection Protocol	Select the protocol to use to talk to your source server. We recommend that you choose 'Auto Select (Recommended).'
