Ingress filtering from an external cloud service to the internal network

2017-05-04 Thread Torres, Matt
NANOG, We have a hybrid cloud model that includes an external cloud service that needs to reach back into our internal network. The application documentation states that this connection cannot go through a proxy server. I am not in a position to redesign this solution or change the parameters.

Unfortunately, a private connection or VPN to the cloud service provider is not available right now, but I can see how that could help solve my problem. :-) ~Matt > Is it possible for you to get a private/direct connect service from your > network perimeter to the cloud provider and eliminate us

You can usually run OpenVPN from a cloud host. The source IP changing possibly should require only one open exception to the local VPN termination point. Better, find a cloud that doesn't do that shit with changing endpoints and gives you real VPNs. What sort of cloud doesn't these days?...?...

According to my application guy, this is true of the Microsoft O365 hybrid solution. It requires direct inbound connections on various ports from largely undefined IP space. I imagine the private VPN limitation (i.e., not having a VPN) is on our side and MS provides something like this... >Bett

Since you can't change the design you may not be able to put some kind of overlay solution in place, which is just a fancy way of saying a VPN solution. What if you look at it in a different way and put some kind of endpoint security cloud solution like Illumio. But if you at least had the freedo
