Install Team Explorer

Download and run TeamSystemWebAccess.msi and follow the instructions

During the installation, you can configure TSWA to use Integrated authentication (only available when installing on TFS AT)

Installing on a stand alone server:

When TSWA is installed on a stand alone server (non TFS AT machine), it is not possible to use Integrated authentication, so you will need to use Forms based authentication. It is recommended to configure TSWA website to use SSL when using Forms based authentication.
