Re: HP ILO4 directly to internet?
Connecting iLO directly to the internet is not considered a best practice. You should access iLO over a VPN connction

What do you mean exactly with "directly to the internet without a vpn"?
Are you considering protecting the HPE iLO4 Web Interface by using a Firewall? so, a possible approach (not the very best practice, stil better the VPN approach) would be to access the HPE iLO4 Web Interface by configuring a basic Port Forwarding at company Firewall level (so HPE iLO4 is placed behind a NAT) and adding a specific Firewall rule to estabilish who exactly - AKA specific IP Public Address - can actually successfully connecting to HPE iLO4 Web Interface excluding all the others that are trying to connect? ...in any case a proper configured Firewall is needed.

Re: HP ILO4 directly to internet?
This is exactly the question - did the ILO get really a public IP address or is it behind a firewall, router, etc ... ?
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
