Hi! I need help with something, I need to connect an AppService to an external server via a VPN.

To connect to that server today I use an app called forticlient and connect via VPN SSL with a gateway, user, and password.

I need to connect an Azure App Service to the same server using the same VPN connection. How can I do it?

    Hi @Gerardo Buenrostro ,

    To connect App service to an external resource via vpn, 1) you need to set up a VNET with vpn connectivity to the external network where the server resides.
    2) set up App service Vnet integration as per this link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/overview-vnet-integration .
    This way your app service can make outbound requests to the external resource .

    Pls accept as Answer if this helps!
