I work primarily from my home in the states for an England customer. As they have worked on improving security for the Microsoft use (mostly Outlook, Teams, and Sharepoint for me), if I’m coming from a US address I have to authenticate every 8 hours. If I was in the UK, it would be 7 days.
My husband also works from home, with no international customers.
I can set up a SFC connection to London, and use the Cloud Applications to send Exchange Online, Microsoft Services, Office 365, and Sharepoint to that. But I can’t do it by client, meaning it drives all my husband’s connections to London as well, which is not ideal.
Is there a way to drive cloud apps by client to a particular SFC location? I don’t want all my traffic going to London and back, just the Microsoft stuff. But I don’t want my husband’s Microsoft stuff going to London and back either.
I see where SFC allows by Client or by App, but it’s a secret sauce as to how Peplink is actually identifying the traffic and routing it. Given MS overuse of 443 for all their different Applications I suspect Peplink is using a destination IP list rather than Cert headers for traffic identification, but either way, since they don’t disclose it to the user base (probably for competitive reasons), I can’t give you an easy way to accomplish what you are trying to do. Personally I’d say route by client and send only your PC to London and back for everything. Any of the other options I can think of have major caveats that make them not worth pursuing.
