There is a project written in ASP.NET 5. It requires a launch from Visual Studio 2015 in debug mode, but to be able to connect to it via external static IP. I understand you need to use a local IIS server. But how to set it up?

    • Run the studio as an administrator
    • Open web project properties in the studio
    • Go to Web Bookmark
    • Change the value in the Servers combo box from IIS Express to Local IIS
    • Click Create Virtual Directory

    enter image description here

    The application will be available by Project Url, with IP substitution or external machine name instead of localhost.

    You can start debugging using F5 , or by hooking to an already running w3wp.exe via Debug → Attach To Process .

    Or you can simply manually create the Application in IIS Manager, go to the site, and just stick to the studio debugger.
