How to publish VMware private cloud vRA7.2

Hi ..

we have a VMware Private cloud 7.2 running at our company with local domain ( company.local )

we did publish the vRA ip to accessed from outside, but when we access a tenant ip url,

as it indicates to local fqdn like the fqdn of LB of vRA which aren't known to our publish DNS & only known to our local DNS.

this way, our employees can't access the private cloud making it pointless to create it in the first place.

I know someone might see this as a stupid question, but unfortunately, I don't have the experience to do it.

I appreciate if someone helps with how to make our tenant accessible from outside the local environment of the company.

Thanks in advanced

When you went through the installer, it asks for the FQDN of the portal.   If you typed a private name such as vra.company.local.  When people are trying to access from the internet, the FQDN won't be resolved.   Your portal FQDN would need to use a internet domain.

Hi...

But the cloud is installed already, There must be a way to fix this without changing already installed vRA7 domain !

Thanks & Best Regards

There's nothing to 'fix', using an internal DNS address is for accessing from an internal network.

Either users will need to connect to the corporate network by a VPN, or you need to fix your DNS configuration.

Hi,

Are you using ultra DNS? if yes it will be easy to redirect your internal site by using external dummy url [for example, vRA.company.com]

Thank you
