I have recently configured my scom 2019 UR2 web console to be externally accessible utilising an azure app proxy.
The purpose of this was to be able to view alerts in the console from a an email link on a Mobile Device
This seems to work to a degree whereby the drilled down alert is displayed but when trying to navigate the left hand menu or health explorer nothing further loads
It seems only dashboards that have been created in the web console will display, all other links appear to do nothing.

Has anyone any experience of externally accessible scom web consoles and what may help bring through the remaining information

    Hi @richard scott ,

    I'm afraid I have no experience with external access to the SCOM Web Console, but from reading through the Azure Application Proxy it sounds doable.

    Understand Azure AD Application Proxy connectors
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/application-proxy-connectors

    Remote access to on-premises applications through Azure AD Application Proxy
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/application-proxy

    I found Jan Vidar's blog post about externally accessing SquaredUp Dashboards:
    https://gotoguy.blog/2015/09/24/publish-the-squared-up-scom-web-dashboard-with-azure-ad-application-proxy

    There's more information about the SquaredUp dashboards here as well:
    https://squaredup.com/blog/how-to-provide-external-access-to-squaredup

    Maybe someone else could shime in whom may have experience with this, I would also suggest asking over at the Azure AD Application Proxy forum over here:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/topics/azure-ad-application-proxy.html
