DirectAccess Multisite and Azure Traffic Manager

I have a DirectAccess Multisite deployment configured with two entry points around the world. I want to use Azure Traffic Manager as a GSLB solution as described here: https://directaccess.richardhicks.com/2016/04/04/directaccess-multisite-geographic-redundancy-with-microsoft-azure-traffic-manager/

I can add one of my entry points as an endpoint in Traffic Manager but my other entry point won't change status from Degraded in Azure.

I have troubleshooted the entry point with wget:

PS C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\bin> .\wget.exe https://<DA_URL>/IPHTTPS --no-check-certificate
SYSTEM_WGETRC = c:/progra~1/wget/etc/wgetrc
syswgetrc = C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32/etc/wgetrc
--2018-08-30 19:48:57--  https://<DA_URL>/IPHTTPS
Resolving <DA_URL>... xxx.xxx.xxx.xx
Connecting to <DA_URL>|xxx.xxx.xxx.xx|:443... connected.
HTTP request send, awaiting respons... Read error (Result too large) in headers.

What could be wrong with my DA server? IIS issue?

My other entry point from the same Direct Access Multisite deployment are responding with HTTP 200 - OK.

This is resolved! Follow this simple steps to set things up! https://thoor.tech/2018/09/direct-access-and-azure-traffic-manager/
