How to run VPN on cloud VM to access client applications behind firewall

Help Robot

I am working on an unattended implementation for a client in which the robot is running on an Azure VM. The processes in question need to access a few client applications that are only accessible through their enterprise VPN - this includes a web-based application and RDP’ing into another server on their network. Is it possible to set up a VPN within Azure that the robot connects to prior to performing its activities? Can this be done with proxy settings that are activated and deactivated with an invoke code activity?

Thanks!

Welcome to the community

If the vpn does not need any authentication like push or phone …then you can …you can either try to use power shell or ui as well if it is feasible and connect to vpn

The powershell idea is a good one and I had not thought of it! Thanks for your reply.
