title: Communicate Azure App Service to locally hosted IIS WCF Service
body: <p>I am struggling to make the communication from Azure App service ( WebApp ) to WCF hosted in IIS locally ( OnPrem ).</p>
  <p>Previosuly when both apps were deployed on IIS ( ManagementApp, AXYOneServer ) locally, they were able to communicate without any issue.</p>
  <p>following url is mainly used to communicate to WCF service which is browseable on IIS without any problem.</p>
  <p><a href="http://1xxxsstt1045.forest7.dom/AXYOneServer/AXYFrontendService.svc/FES3" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://1xxxsstt1045.forest7.dom/AXYOneServer/AXYFrontendService.svc/FES3</a></p>
  <p>The above url is completely working fine when both apps are locally hosted ( IIS ).
  But If app service hosted at azure try to access above url which is osted at IIS , I can see the following exception.</p>
  <pre><code> There was no endpoint listening at http://1xxxsstt1045.forest7.dom/AXYOneServer/AXYFrontendService.svc/FES3 that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.
  </code></pre>
  <p>What could be the reason?
  What should I do to make their communication successfull. Moreover, debugging should also be possible from azure app-service to locally deployed IIS WCF service.</p>
  <p><em>Internal Exception</em> : The remote name '1xxxsstt1045.forest7.dom' cannot be resolved.</p>
