    @Sharon Zhao-MSFT Tank you for answer my question but !

    • myDomain.local located in private zone and communicate by private dns
    • myDomain.com located in public zone and communicate by private dns

    1- which on Primary DNS suffix in Edge Server? myDomain.local OR myDomain.com ???
    2- In the Topology Builder what is name Edge Server ? SkypeEdge.local OR SkypeEdge.com
    3- why not create addition domain in Skype topology ? if not add additional domain, in certificate step not create for myDomain.com record only webext.myDomain.com

    @Behzad Najafizad ,

    Question 1- how user in public zone connect by public domain (domain.com) and login by local username and password?

    External user sign-in process is as below:

    1. Client discovers Edge Server:
      lyncdiscoverinternal.<sip-domain>
      lyncdiscover.<sip-domain>
      _sipinternaltls._tcp.<sip-domain>
      _sipinternal._tcp.<sip-domain>
      _sip._tls.<sip-domain>
      sipinternal.<sip-domain>
      sip.<sip-domain>
      sipexternal.<sip-domain>
      2.Client connects to Edge Server.
    2. Edge Server proxies connection to Director.
    3. Director authenticates user and proxy connection to user’s home pool.

    Question 2- do you need create additional sip domain in local skype or edge server?

    No. It only needs to deploy Edge server properly. For more details, please refer to this article

    Question 3- certificate for local and public domain how create by one sip ?

    About certificate, please refer to this link.
