I am wondering if my IP address will in any way change when accessing the virtual desktop.
When my on-premise network is provisioned to the Azure network, is there a scenario where I will be assigned a different IP, due to a Dynamic DNS in the Azure network(I don't know if there is one, please tell me) for I want a static IP that will not change in any way.
In my knowledge, there are two Azure provisioning centers in South Korea where I live, and I wonder if the connection will shift around in any given situation.

Is the Azure virtual desktop integrated with Akamai services in any way? (the CDN service, for example)

It would be helpful if I knew what kind of third party services are associated with the Azure virtual desktop.

Thank you very much.

Hi @Ben Jeong ,

You can achieve a static IP for WVD by routing the traffic through a Network Virtual Appliance.

As for third party services associated with Azure virtual desktop, Akamai isn't associated. That being said please see WVD Partners page for more.

You've given me information about WVD, but I wanted to ask about RDS. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that.

Does RDS use dynamic IP, or are the users given a static IP?

Is the RDS integrated with any Akamai services? (CDN for example)

Hi @Ben Jeong ,

Thanks for the follow up. I've updated your question to have the RDS Tag.

To use a static IP with RDS you can use an Azure Load Balancer to force traffic over a single static IP. This 3rd party article discusses this exact use case.

I am unable to find anything explicitly stating RDS being integrated with any Akamai services. Most of our partners work with both RDS and WVD but we don't have any specific page for RDS partners. See the WVD Partners page I provided above. If your interested in Akamai services I'd suggest reaching out to them to see if they support RDS.
