Only one way to find out - the VPN will be the critical piece of the puzzle.  I don't think the container needs to be joined to your AD domain but the user logging into the gateway management app needs to successfully authenticate against your company's AD.

    yes, you can use PS5 with OnPremisesDataGatewayHAMgmt cmdlets, PS6.4+ with DataGateway cmdlets, or plain old Invoke-RestMethod calls for manual API wrangling.

     

    Not sure if any of these allow you to set a gateway up from scratch though.
