So I only need to make sure that the users on the other side of the WAN can connect on the spice ports?
Yes, that's all you need. David

For example. I allow access to the engine portal over our WAN to a NATed IP address. The users on the other side of the WAN do not have access to the real VM IP addresses.
Please note that the client is actually connecting to _host_ IP, not to VM IP address. The VM may be configured with no NIC (so w/o any network connectivity) and you'll still be able to connect to it using Spice (or VNC). Only RDP needs connectivity to the VM.
When they click on the console access button, they are unable to connect to the VM. I believe this is because it using attempting a direct connection instead of proxying through the portal.

more tech details also from rhev docs: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualizat...
I don't remember if it is ok and works to set up the squid part on engine itself....
In principle, there's no reason why it shouldn't work. ovirt-engine & friends don't care about squid and squid doesn't care about the rest of the system as long as the machine has enough power/bandwidth to run both.
but I think it would be cleaner design to put it on another dedicated infrastructure host, perhaps already existing in your infra for similar reasons.
Agreed.
