Network Configuration (HTML5)
Continuation of Part 1: Creating a VM from a Template
Prerequisites
Before configuring the VM, ensure the following:
- Edge Gateways are properly configured
- NAT port forwarding rules are set up for VADC connectivity
Required Ports for VADC Operation
VmWare View Agent Direct-Connection Plug-In uses the following ports:
| Protocol | Port | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| TCP | 443 | HTTPS (Primary connection) |
| TCP | 3389 | RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) |
| TCP/UDP | 4172 | PCoIP (Remote display protocol) |
| TCP | 32111 | Framework Channel |
Note:
-
The VM template is preconfigured for these ports.
-
If using non-standard external ports, use a sequential range (e.g.,
1000→443,1001→3389,1002→4172,1003→32111). -
For multiple VMs, configure separate NAT rules for each.
NAT Configuration
1. Access Edge Gateway Settings
-
Navigate to the EDGES tab.
-
Select your ORGANIZATION_NAME_EDGE.
-
External IP Address and External Network details are visible here.
-
Go to CONFIGURE SERVICES → NAT tab.
Verify Existing Rules
-
SNAT Rule (Outgoing traffic)
-
DNAT Rule (Incoming RDP traffic on TCP 3389)
Add Missing SNAT Rule (If Needed)
Click + SNAT RULE.
Configure:
-
Applied On: Select your external network (from Step 1).
-
Original Source IP/Range: VM/internal network IP.
-
Translated (External) Source IP/Range: External IP (from Step 1).
-
Status: Enabled
-
Click KEEP to save.
Configure DNAT Rules for Incoming Traffic
Create 4 separate rules for:
-
TCP 443
-
TCP 3389
-
TCP & UDP 4172
-
TCP 32111
For Each Rule:
Click + DNAT RULE.
Configure:
-
Applied On: External network (from Step 1).
-
Original Source IP/Range: External IP.
-
Protocol: Select TCP, UDP, or TCP & UDP as required.
-
Original Port: External port (e.g.,
1000for HTTPS). -
Translated IP/Range: VM’s internal IP.
-
Translated Port: Corresponding internal port (e.g.,
443). -
Status: Enabled
-
Click KEEP to save.
Ensure all 4 DNAT rules are correctly configured.
Test connectivity using the assigned external ports.
