Hello!

IIUC this is not something FreeIPA supports. When you deploy FreeInPA 
server it is tied to a domain specified during installation.

I think you need to decide whether your FreeIPA domain is internal or 
external.
If it's internal it is inaccessible from outside and you need to first 
connect to the internal network (e.g. use VPN) and then connect to 
FreeIPA server.
If it's external then everything works as expected.
