Communications from the VPN is not reaching vCenter Server ?

Thank you Andrew.... I will explain it more
As to connect to your VCenter you usually use "VMware vSphere Client" software.
Now, when I use that client when I am inside the company, I can see all the VMs inside the VCenter I installed before "like servers x ,y ,z..etc"
This is normal...
Now suppose I am outside the company, at home for instance. As to connect to the company network, I am using VPN client to connect that network. The VPN connection established perfectly, I can see everting inside the company network. BUT, when I use the ""VMware vSphere Client" to access the VCenter, all of the VMs disappeared. Nothing there... No servers at all!!!!!
Thanks in advance...

when you access via VPN, it's connects to vCenter Server, but it's blank ?
are they any hosts?
or are host missing as well ?
You are connecting with the same username and password ?

It is very odd, that when accessing via VPN - VMs are missing from the Inventory because you are just connected to the same vCenter Server Management server.
So what version of vCenter Server is this, and how are you accessing vCenter Server, vSphere Client, Web Client ?
The VMware vSphere Client (thick client c#) is now discontinued, have you tried access via a browser ?
Can you let me have a screenshot ?

Hello Andrew
Actually, I cannot access Vcenter via web browser. I can access only by VMware vSphere Client
