Hi Philip, 

It really depends on your setup of IRIS, in terms of Studio access this normally goes across default port 1972. 

Cheers

I am still working through the Abstract Class/Print function to call the printer directly as this was similar to what was setup on UK sites.

Thanks Sergei, 

The project I am currently on we're only at the early stages, I have reached out to the ISC Technical Implementation lead regarding finding a solution. 

I was just looking to see how others in the community have achieved this via AAD. I can recall a project in UK, but this was 5+ years ago. 

Cheers,

TC

Hello,

We are currently utilising the Azure basic load balancer to act as a vip in Azure for both our IRIS 2020 mirrors. 

Did you managed to get this working?
