internet facing deployment (IFD) - CRM 2016 - on-premises

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 215

Hi everyone

Does "internet facing deployment (IFD)" require internet connection?

When I block "internet access" from my adfs server, the crm crashes and CRM will be unavailable.

Is there a solution to this?

    As far as I know you should have internet connection for IFD with windows Firewall with Advanced Security  -

    If you have IFD, users need to be authenticated by the ADFS server to access CRM, so the ADFS server must be configured to allow the ports necessary for authentication,

    If using forms authentication, the authentication will be over https (by default TCP port 443). If using Windows authentication, then it will be the ports necessary for Windows authentication
