While doing nslookup server is getting resolved from xxx..internal.cloudapp.net

Question

I have a DC which is installed in VM and VM is hosted in azure. I am able to do rdp using ip address not using vm name. I used nslookup command and I am response as below

Server: XXXXXX.internal.cloudapp.net

Is that the reason I am not able to connect with VM name?
Or is this normal?

Answer 1

Hi,

Below you have the documentation for how to create a FQDN name for your VM:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/create-fqdn

After that you can use the FQDN to connect to the VM - you have to use the full name.

Hope this helps!
