Another great one inspired from our top Veeam Agent in the UK MP!
You have a customer that wants physical servers to backup to offsite (Cloud) object storage directly. They also want to use the Veeam Agent to protect key business stakeholders (C-suite) devices wherever they are around the globe. To prevent opening the cloud storage to accept connections from any public IP address, you decide to force the endpoints to connect indirectly to object storage, using a gateway over the corporate VPN.
To achieve this, you create your Veeam backup repository as object storage, specify the connection mode as direct, and set access permissions to “provided by the backup server (traffic goes through a gateway server)”
You then create backup jobs that are managed by the VBR server to target the servers, and create backup job policies that are managed by the Veeam Agent for the device endpoints.
What happens when you test this? And what is used as the gateway?
