Hello!
We've recently upgraded to SL 2015 and I had a question come up regarding networking requirements for this new version. In talking to our SL representatives, they stated that Microsoft does not support Dynamics SL installations that have the Dynamics server on a different local network than the clients interacting with it. I can't seem to find this peculiar requirement in any documentation from Microsoft.
We have a 2 sites that have a site to site VPN between them, allowing for local internet traffic to flow between the two sites. As far as the hosts are concerned, all of the computers are on a local LAN, just one destination takes a bit more time. We'd like for client machines from one site to connect to the SL server that is sitting at the other site, but according to our representatives, this is not supported and Microsoft will not offer support if this is installed this way. We've been told to set up a terminal server at the remote site for users to login to and use.
I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this. I'm thinking it's one of those hidden requirements that no one knows about, but figured I'd post a question to the forum to see if anyone else has run into this issue.
Thank you in advance!
