Direct access NLB does not work

I had a problem with HA DA, it was working on one server but not on the other one in NLB.

I checked few things until I discovered that "route print" on the client does not have a route to fd40:....   network - DNS64 subnet for internal network.


Then I discovered that in fact the same route was missing on the second server.

added a route in netsh interface ipv6 add route  IPv6 subnet and made it publish=yes.

ServiceNow and Skype for Business integration

ServiceNow can shows the S4B presence (in full mode). But S4B must be allowed to respond to ServiceNow requests. We need to allow a specific domain. In S4B powershell run:

 

$x = New-CsWebOrigin -Url https://serviceportal.xxx.yyy

Set-CsWebServiceConfiguration -CrossDomainAuthorizationList @{Add=$x}

 

if not you may see an error

 

X-Ms-diagnostics: 28070;source="xxx";reason="Service does not allow a cross domain request from this origin."
