I am running a dedicated arma 3 server on a VM. Everything works fine when I use the contect to remote server. However it is not possible to connect to the server as it is reported to the ingame browser.
Using a network sniffer on the client, I can see it trying to connect to the right IP-address (external) of the arma 3 server, but using a udp port number 1024+. The server is running on port 2302. All the portforwordings (UDP 2300-2305) are made.

The server setup is as follow: The server is a VM running on Windows Azure. The IP of the server is internally 100.X.X.X. The external address is 137.X.X.X and there are made portforwardings for UDP port 2300-2305.
The Arma 3 server is setup in config to use port 2300-2305.
The server works fine when connecting directly to ip and port (137.X.X.X:2302). When connecting via ingame browser, a “connecting failed” is reported.
A command to tell what ip-address and port the server exe should report in the ingame browser could maybe solve the problem.

q1, are you forwarding properly also STEAM ports?

q2, what's your server complete startup commandline ?
note: there are commandline commands -ip= and -port= , hence why i ask
Running dev build 1.07.112769
Using the default steam ports open as per link above. But still have the original issue as mentioned above.
