Geoblocking

MVP

Does anyone know whether it is possible to hold a Skype for Business call where a participant's company has geoblocked the O365 tenant of the meeting organiser?

 

I know, it seems odd to geoblock Microsoft's multi-tenant O365 servers.

If anyone else come across this problem, I'm happy to share my experience.


Can you explain what you mean by geoblocking?

A user could always PSTN dial in?

I don't really have too much information on the attendee's IT setup. All I can tell you is that their corporate website does not work from my location, and e-mails from my O365 tenant don't go through. That includes using OWA, where even the X-Originating-IP is Microsoft's.

 

My guess is that the connections required by Skype for Business are also blocked, so it doesn't work.

 

The aim is to present my screen, so a PSTN dial-in isn't going to help unfortunately.

 

OK, sounds like a fairly unique setup. If SfB is blocked you can't do SfB :) 

 

Probably best to talk to them about what you can use to desktop share with them.

 

thanks
